Summary
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"?

Great listening
I finally found a series in this genre without a harem (so far) and bedroom encounters are delicacy handled. So the story has to rely on plot and characters. I am really keen to start the next book!
Only 1 minor gripe- in the printed book character stats would be there in a table and you would glance at it and move on. In the reading, the stats have all the appeal of reading an excel spreadsheet one row at a time, cell by cell, all the headings then the numbers below. It goes on for over 2 minutes each time. Skip skip skip skip skip skip backskip, continue
That doesn’t in the least put me off buying the next one though

Ready Player Deja Vu?
Firstly, I would like to say i got this free as inclusive with my audible account. Is it enjoyable? Yes. Is it well performed? Yes, good naration. Is it original? Nope! A dystopian future where democracy is broken and the law and all aspects of society is governed by large corporations, those that break the law can be sentenced to a virtual reality game to pay off their debt, sound familiar?
As pointed out in other reviews it is quite similar to "Ready Player One" in all those aspects, except that the story doesnt end with this one book, so a series?
I suppose it was inevitable that this would happen with this genre eventualy.
When the next book in the series is available I would probably follow it just to see how it turns out.

Enjoyable throughout except for one thing
As said in the title, it was a great listen and has me hooked on what's to come next. The problem however, is the MC's stat read outs: it takes a few minutes by the end of the book and I found it hard to believe all of that was left in without being cut down significantly. Still, it's not like it's hard to skip, so it's just a small problem imo.
