About this listen

In the bleak, not-too-distant future, most people who could fled to the virtual reality OVR World Online.

Zachary "Zee" Jones will never be able to afford to become a player of the game. After committing a crime in order to save his mother's life, he was arrested and included in the Inmate Player Program. Even without perception filters to limit his pain, it was better than the alternative. He has the opportunity to earn more money in a five-year sentence then he could have in his entire life as a hospital janitor.

Zee is jacked into Gygax, a high fantasy adventure game world, filled with knights, magic, and monsters. But Zee quickly learns that just because the world is virtual doesn't mean the danger isn't real. Can he find his fortune, perhaps a few allies, avoid the dangers of adventuring as an inmate, and unravel the mystery behind the game's confounding sentient computer program wearing a familiar face called "the doctor"?

I don't usually mind too much when the stats are read in these stories, as it's part of the genre and can be a useful progress report, but I found I didn't understand how these ones worked at all. I have no idea what the sequences of numbers meant at all, which made it become annoying. Give me "1 of three levels", or Level 5 of 15" or something like that .. even "20.5% of whatever" would do. Other than that, not a bad story .. different take on it all.

Not too bad, but...

Having been dissapointed by many LITRPG novels I hesitate to buy. This is very satisfying, grabs you and takes ypu along fof the ride. Excellent plot with lots of room for many exciting follow ups. Narration brilliant. Thankyou, Authors, Narrators and production people.

EK wishes he could have written a self-aware virtual reality gaming story filled with pop culture references that is actually able to stand on its own 2 feet with mostly likeable, but undeniably human, characters, an intriguing plot, and an interesting world to explore. I can't wait to crack open the next one!

The story is your standard cliche RPG, main character who is the most inexperienced thinks he knows more than others who have played the game for 5+ years. Also his spells are overpowered for his level and unrealistic in a game RPG universe.
