The story continues with an dramatic mixture of real and virtual worlds intrigues and entanglements. Travis Bagwell expertly crafts the interplay between the two worlds with an invasive AI mind-meddling between the two. This book introduces two more powerful antagonists, one who befriends Alex and another very powerful one who plans the destruction of Jason and the Twilight Throne. The book impressively moves fairly evenly throughout considering the almost 28 hours of listening. I attribute this feat to both the skill of the author and David Stifel’s excellent performance. Without giving away any of the plot, I did drop one star for the predictability of outcomes of some situations due to carelessness and immediate obviousness due to what had already been revealed in earlier encounters.
