What is worse than being stuck in a video game? Being stuck in your Bank Alt
Ever since the war, the PCs of VCO have viewed Rake as a dark and violent protector and Rake is not pleased with it. Rakes just wants to solve the mystery of the glitch and find a way to log out but people keep begging for his help.
But when a renegade PC Sniper starts killing off others with well placed shots, Rake is pulled into a deadly game of hide and seek. Who is the sniper and why is he killing people that Rake knows? Rake has no idea but he hopes that he can survive long enough to find out.
Larry Gent is a bottomless well of historical conflicts, being able to name every battle and every major combatant, whose knowledge is sadly limited to numerous fictional worlds. He took to writing in order to give back to the worlds he’d enjoyed as an avid reader.
Larry is an enthusiastic gamer and enjoys all forms of geek entertainment be they games, Sci-fi, fantasy, movies, television, or any other medium he can get a fix from. He is a member of the Kirkman army (the non-zombie divisions), the Brian K. Vaughn brigade, the N7 Spectres, and the TARDIS repair-men (it's like a VCR repair man you just see the ending of the movie first), all while trying to get a passport for Faerun and re-negotiating with George Lucas to get use of the soul he sold him many years back (or at least the merchandising rights).
A native of Perth, Ontario he moved out east to Halifax as a sailor after being politely asked by the Canadian Navy. There he studied Math and Computer science at Mount Saint Vincent University. When Larry isn’t in numerous government offices, fighting for his back-pay for his years as Batman, he is either performing on stage in the comedy-debate show Geeks versus Nerds, volunteering with the planning committee for Hal-Con Science-Fiction and Fantasy organization and editing the GvN: Online magazine.
Larry lives in Halifax with his author-wife Valérie Gent and was recently adopted by an evil cat Zid. He created his personal blog 42webs.com so that the hundreds of hours he spends watching TV, playing games, reading books and comics, and surfing the web don’t go to waste.
The third book was interesting. The characters are getting to have more of a personality and the progression is going well.
They have moved from the SAO trope to more of a Log Horizon. They are now working on the interactions between characters and NPCs. Forming relationships and political ties to the world.
The sleeper wasn't as surprising this time, it was pretty obvious. It does show that at least a couple of lowbies were OP, not just 1.
The reaper is still OP above OP and the references are still coming in hot and heavy, but I felt pulled along better.
