What could be worse that getting stuck in a virtual world?

Instead of enjoying the game, I found myself trapped inside my character's dead body. Now the only way I can save myself is by procuring the Scroll of Rebirth. The problem is my chances of getting it are slim. I'm an undead: an outlaw with no friends, only fickle allies and plenty of enemies. Who are only waiting for their chance to strike.

My undead hangman character has to tread a razor's edge, with only the support of his fellow players preventing his imminent plunge into the abyss. But are they who they claim they are? In a game, there's nothing easier than assuming another person's identity.

Better than the first book!

This was a fun ride. I greatly enjoyed this book better than the first, mostly because the story progression seemed more meaningful, the characters became more well-defined, and we got a hint at what the overall end game of what the plot might be. The narrator is still the weakest part of this book - he's kind of too boring for this genre in my opinion - however it's not as bad as in the first book. You mostly notice it at its worst during high action scenes and dialogue. It's not bad enough though to not listen to the book - I still recommend this book.

Decent

This series is obviously translated and at points that becomes clear, overall the plot line can be a bit slow but does move along, over all interesting story and about middle of the road as far as litrpgs go.

The first book

The first book started off slowly, but I’m glad I kept listening. It just keeps getting better and better and I hope the trend continues in the third book. Great job to the author, and thanks to audible for including these in the membership.

getting better

the story is definitely getting better as the world is fleshed out with more detail

Perspective from an adult

Superior litrpg. Great storyline that captivated me for the first two books in the series. Rivaled the Titan of Greymore.
