Viridian Gate Online: Inquisitor's Foil

Illusionist Series, Book 3

By: D.J. Bodden, James Hunter

Narrated by: Daniel Thomas May

He's a part-time Imperial hero, full-time thief. Lucky for him, she's not that kind of Inquisitor.

Illusionist and novice spy Alan Campbell just got out of one relationship only to have another woman walk into his life: the Lady Camilla Favonius of the Imperial Inquisition. He's close to broke and left without orders. She wears plate armor in the field and around her heart. Is the lady just what the Plague Doctor ordered, or will his efforts to get a job and woo her only leave him jaded...or dead?

From the city of Harrowick to the perilous depths of the Grass Sea, Alan will have to fight a corrupt syndicate, earn his place in the Thieves' Union, and face down monsters and the risen dead if he wants a happy ending. All the while, in the real world, Robert Osmark is as close to losing his company as he's ever been, and both Sandra and Jeff will have to pick sides once the battle lines are drawn.

Brazen thievery, Death caught off-balance, the Dawn Elves' dirty secret, and unexpected love combine in Inquisitor's Foil, the third book of the Illusionist series.

Well written, beautifully performed.

My only complaint is that it's too short. But, don't get me wrong. it's due to the story being so captivating and great that you just can't stop listening. I love the back story and character development in this series so much. You really get a feel for the drive behind the characters' actions. Daniel Thomas May does a fantastic job with the whole cast. This series is especially good in getting to know the goings on for how VGO was developed and how it became the lifeboat for the Cataclysm.

Great read

Obviously the main storyline from the original series is better than this. However this is a nice twist. I just don't know that I care as much about the MC as much as I did for the original. I was hoping for a little bit more insight. Which this didn't provide. But that didn't stop me from enjoying it.

great entry

I think the illusionist is the most interesting and does the most world building of the VGO storyline. can't wait for the next entry. its o
so cool to see characters from the other stories in a different light .

I love these books

These books are really good and I recommend them to anybody that loves listening to litrpg books

fantastic just like every other installment

I have fallen in love with this universe. even subscribed to the news letter so I can get the next one. I listened through it a second time to have my 15 year old give it a go and he too is not eagerly awaiting the next installment.

at the moment we are listening through the "core" series (my second time there as well) and I'm picking up on the details that carry over from this series you wouldn't otherwise notice.

and as always the voice actor was perfectly cast for this particular narrative.
