Lorna Hermit gets kicked out of her home on her 15th birthday because of the useless skill she manifests called "Internet." I can only speculate how long it takes until she realizes she is in a video game universe. On the other hand, Lorna is a ditz. She may never figure it out.

Lorna inhabits a world in a game called Etalia. She checks the guide online and finds The Staff of the World Tree. The acquisition makes her the strongest witch in the world. It also makes her feel guilty, since she didn't do any of the things mentioned by Yggdrasil, the Tree's Spirit.

One other thing I can say about this book is that the translation is hilarious. They must have had a great deal of fun localizing all of the internet slang or collecting all the terms. So now we follow Lorna as she journeys from place to place and fulfills side quests and main-line story requirements with ease.

I enjoyed the book. Thanks for reading my review, and see you next time.
