Publisher's summary

Join James, our intrepid adventurer, streamer, and bug hunter, as he jumps headfirst into the first true immersion VRMMORPG game and explores the digital reality that the dev's have kept under lock and key.

No previews? No class or race info before launch? What could possibly go wrong? Especially starting in the empire inspired by ancient Egypt.

Rolling a character reminiscent of an old-school D&D cleric, James takes on the world of Sosaku Online with spear, shield, and holy fire.

Features: VR, cursing, violence, slice of life. No: harem, explicit, telemarketers.

Great listen

First off Daniel does an amazing job bringing this story to life as usual. The story itself is well done with the vrmmo type of Litrpg. Sometimes it’s hard to find a good way to do vrmmo but I think this one finds a great balance and delivers a good story.

Really good book

This was an amazing book. A little different from what I normally listen to or read. I’m glad I picked this up though. Well written and narrated.

Great new series

Story:
As I expect from J. Arthur Klein after 'Extra Credit' this is a great new series with a unique character build and starting area. As the cover shows the MC starts in an Egyptian inspired area and builds a combat cleric. Very detailed world building, both in and out of the VRMMORPG. I'm anxiously awaiting the audio for book 2.

Narrator
Daniel Wisniewski always turns in an amazing performance. Amazing talent, great range of character voices, and superb audio quality.

If you want to get a slice of someone's game,....

So enjoyable story but no real danger. You basically get a live narration of the guys game and some of his thoughts and what he plans on streaming etc... OK, but I want more.
