It is more or less a standard litRPG book but it is one well made.
The MC is symphatic, makes good and wrong decisions. the NPCs are different and the interaction with them is nice. The background story arc adds a bit of tension and the game system offers a nice range of options. Nvertheless the "shutdown plot" is very unrealistic.
Will definitely read the next one! ( )

If you haven't heard of the genre or are curious about it, I recommend this book. The author is a native English speaker, which is a definite plus when it comes to this genre. I am not dissing translators, but since a lot of these novels are translated from another language and done so at the author's expense, there is a great disparity in quality.

Mr. Brody provided interesting characters and a very original premise as to the circumstances of the players within the game and the driving force behind the plot. That said, I found the ending very quick and weak. He spent so much time in the first few chapters building up the apparent dastardly actions of the game developer but then abandoned all of it at the end and tried to present him as doing something for the greater good.

A little disappointment in that, but since it appears this is going to be a series, perhaps another plot twist is coming. I will be keeping an eye out for the next book in the world of Eden's Gate. ( )
