Publisher's Summary

No matter how many times you die, it still sucks.

For Hudson, the virtual world of PrimeVerse isn't all bad. It's beautiful; much nicer than overpopulated Earth. It almost feels like a vacation except for the volatile wildlife, lack of any amenities, and - oh yeah - the inability to log out.

Exploring the world, learning his class, and leveling skills is all fun and games until a powerful rogue player with a vendetta shows up to wipe out Hudson and his primitive tribe. Thrust into a conflict he didn't create, Hudson is forced into a cycle of respawning where he learns that even death can be used as a tool. So much for that vacation.

It's not like he signed up for this. Or even went willingly. but when life hands you lemons...use them to kill the dog-size spiders that are trying to eat your face.

A Solid, Fun Adventure for Everyone

While the setup takes place in a dark future, the story itself was a fairly upbeat affair, and was simply a delight to listen to. I legitimately had a great time with PrimeVerse: Forced Login.

Was a solid story, and the world R.K. Billiau has put together has enough of the known to feel familiar and safe, while also adding some new mechanics to spice up the story. As for the narrator: Eric did a great job - to me, there was the odd occasion where he had Hudson (the protagonist) sound a bit more whiny than I thought the words were expressing, but overall he was perfect for the book.

The main cast of characters all have well shown personalities, and I was impressed with how quickly one of the characters was able to go from kind of annoying, in a situationally understandable way, to downright insufferable, in a well written manner. I liked the way the various groups bounced off each other, and while there was the occasional moment of 'I wish Hudson had done xyz', the story almost always gave solid reasons for what he did, or had him chose the 'if I, the gamer-reader was in this situation, then I'd do THIS', which was nice, and left me feeling like the overall situations were more natural than stories where you're constantly annoyed at how stupid the characters are being are for doing obviously dumb things.

By the end, I felt I'd had a great time. The PrimeVerse is ripe for more adventures, and I'm excited to see it be fleshed out beyond the events in this starting valley.

Can't wait for Book 2 - hope the audiobook comes out just as quickly :)
