Proxima Legends, Vol 1 is a great book with multiple likable characters that you follow, An interesting story that will keep you entertained when following the main character in the VR game, Proxima, and when he is in the actual world. The main protagonist and those who are around in throughout the book are enjoyable and tend to even each other out. The book also has an interesting idea with the two universes (Proxima and the real world) crossing over into each other, with mysterious circumstances occurring leading to a particular group of Proxima gamers’ deaths. The NPCs in the Proxima universe having knowledge of the real world was an interesting idea that added to the character’s personalities and mystique of the world. There is romance in the book, but I did not find it getting in the way of my enjoyment of the main story.
Overall if you like the author’s summary and don’t mind some romance or Yakuza business, I encourage you to check this book out! It has a unique story, a fascinating idea when it comes to the universes and other games in this universe crossing over, a fantastic narrator, some references to the other books that the author has written, and a witty mither-ficken goblin named Hiccup!
