Summary
A game too good to be true. A golden opportunity. A nightmare he can’t escape.
If Arthur Mallory plays one more steaming pile of garbage disguised as a virtual role-playing game, he might hang up his gaming hat for good. When he discovers the new “deep dive” game Worlds Unbound, he decides it might be worth a try. If it sucks, he'll just return it the next day and cancel the financing.
The game is everything he could have wanted, even without elves or dwarves or character creation. The magic system has him hooked.
He’s willing to overlook the mangled sleep schedule and crippling nightmares if it means feeling that power running through his veins. But when an accident leaves his headset broken, he realizes he might be cut off from the magic - and the game - for good.
He’s not going to let that happen.

Good listen
Good story, sets the scene for the next book nicely. I personally found a couple of the characters too whiny at times though

Like LitRPG? Like this.
The usual blurring of realities, the overpowered hero with a crippling flaw. What's not to love?
The first in the series, so goin friends, losse friends, gain enemies, kill enemies.
It does what it does well andI will follow the series.
Where the hero was pulling spells from was not always clear, going from clueless to modern Merlin in a short order, otherwise the story was well paced.
No real cliffhanger ending, more of a leve you wanting more.
Well read.

Ok but not exactly gripping.
Thisbis a tough book to review as, while on one hand I enjoyed it, at no point did I feel invested in any of the characters.
Main character is just a little boring and the sode cast are equally just a bit bland. The RPG system is ok but again you never really feel you've become comfortable with the skill checks or able to preempt how things will turn out as 90% of skills fail, but don't or vice-versa.
I enjoyed the story well enough, and the narration is fantastic but again, there's just the fact I was never feeling the 'one more chapter' that a lot of books offer.
Worth a listen but I don't think I'll move on with the series.

A good start
A nice LitRPG VR story where the MC goes through quite a few things which makes the plot and story quite exciting and interesting.
Definitely recommended.
