Wow – what a great addition to the Lit-RPG genre! This is a great book not matter your familiarity with video games – Role Playing Games- or their presence in fiction.
I loved this book, the characters are unique and dynamic, the plot is interesting and coherent, and the story is just plain fun. The author perfectly captures the excitement that a gamer feels while playing these games and makes that excitement available to the reader without getting bogged down in the minutia of stat pages, skill trees, and other staples of an RPG, while still connecting to those aspects of the games.
I would recommend this book to anybody looking for a quality read. I anxiously await the next installment.
