Summary

Seamus is facing life in prison without parole. While doing his time, he's given an option by the Department of Justice and the biggest virtual game maker around, Mindblown Entertainment. If he will help them test long-term immersion, he will get the chance to play the latest game from Mindblown - Alpha World. All he has to do is sign away his legal rights and sign an NDA.

He's the first gamer to be sentenced to life imprisonment in a virtual world. What could go wrong?

Not sure...

Was enjoying the book, then it went into fantasy porn for over an hour before it got back on track. Going to give the second book a try and see how that goes.

Very interesting story line

My only quibble would be that sometimes the narrator is narrating a conversation between characters with a almost sarcastic tone which builds suspense when not needed, makes for edge of your seat listening during ordinary scenes
That said I love his voice very small town sheriff vibe which suits perfectly

Virtual reality mmorpg with a twist

If you can imagine crossing Jack reacher with d&d, and then adding a little carry on style erotica you wouldn't be far off this book. Easy listening with simple plot elements which don't cause a strain on the cranium but the back story develops nicely and left me wanting more.

Great RPG-LIT story immersion.

I love RPG-LIT as I'm a gamer myself I find these stories awsome and closing my eyes can imagine with near perfection the visual storyline that would scroll across my minds eye giving me an imersive deapth to the story. I would just like to mention as a matter of course that there are sexually explicit scenes in the storyline that may be unsuitable for minors and therefore with parental responsibility be suggested for children, apart from that this is the new dimension in storytelling I find refreshing and adept in the 21st century.
