Stormbane
Jenni wakes up in an inn she's never visited before, in a land she didn't even know existed. She's wearing the armour equivalent of a bikini and there's a longsword propped against her bed. A weapon that she somehow knows how to use with brutal efficiency. And downstairs, the place is packed to the rafters with adventurers. Although she doesn't know it yet, Jenni, now called 'Stormbane', has entered an MMORPG, one that she's going to turn upside-down.

Delightful twist on a wizard of oz type story
Edwin really has a way of using high fantasy tropes to effect, allowing him to maintain pace and excitement while still painting a clear picture to the initiated. He kept the spins coming and I couldn't wait to see what the final twist would be. Very enjoyable read.
