Good start to series. Another very entertaining, engaging and enjoyable story set in the Proxima world. This story was creative, fun and full of sarcastic humor as well as fast-paced with plenty of action. On top of that it has an unusual and very interesting cast of characters.

I’m not a gamer and never have been. I can’t tell you the first thing about RPG/VR games, but the way that Harmon Cooper writes his stories though it doesn’t make a difference. Even though this is a complex, unique and weird RPG/VR world it’s easy to follow, flows smoothly and everything makes sense.

Even though this story is set in the same Proxima world as his other books it’s a new series. You don’t need to have read the other series to enjoy this book.

The narration is fantastic. Jeff Hays as usual does an awesome job. He is one of the best narrators out there. You know you are going to enjoy any book he narrates even if you don’t like the story. It’s hard to believe that he is just one person doing all these parts at times. He has a voice that pulls you into the story brings it to life. Clearly spoken with a nice smooth pace. His character voices and accents are great. Every character has a different voice and distinct personality. Very enjoyable.

Annie Ellicott was a pleasant surprise. You get so into the story you forget there is another narrator. So it comes as a bit of a shock when she joins in. She has a great voice. Clearly spoken with a nice even pace.Her tone and inflection were great. She sounds like she will be a fantastic narrator. Looking forward to hearing her more in the future.

I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and voluntarily provided this review.
