DNF at 45%. Litrp drama seemingly best suited for young girls infected by the gender&woke agenda. Gender seems to be very important for the author, the MC even asks a computer program which sex it has... Untypically for the genre is the generous use of attributes pretty, hot and beautiful (to describe other women), girly style pseudo cursing, nerdy quotations, blushing and crying in the books. The author brings up the main issues of online gaming - how to use the toilett, fear of nudity in front of the doctor, drooling while sleeping... Annoying gender and woke statements. More than 80 percent of the important characters in the first village are - of course! - strong women.
The MC is a poor young lesbian woman, forced to repay the debts of her family. She choses to do so by playing an online game intending to sell loot for real world money. She has a huge emotional trauma which makes her wary of all men and makes her react cold, bitchy and judgemental in real life while overcompensating in the game. Here the MC is naive, very emotional, overly generous, wants to become friend with all NPC and wishes to hug everybody all the time. In the online game she as well meets another woman who hates all men because she had one! bad relationship and wants to become her friend. Throughout the book she keeps swooning over strong women.. Get a room already!
I found it hilarious, when the MC proudly improves armor to have a glitterhoof effect, gleaming in the sun, as she is a stealth based character *rofl*. Another funny detail is the granfathers katana that the MC imports into the game - it is declared legendary and OP and split into 10 parts. At the start it is established that the one remaining part is rather short. Later on, however, the author forgets about that and has the MC use it like a normal katana... ;-) Somehow, according to the story the missing parts of the sword are used to turn several people and monsters into evil henchmen of the antagonist. Conveniently those parts are all on the path of the MC. The time line of the influence of the sword parts doesn´t fit to the time the sword was in the game.... ;-(
Even though the version of the computer game the MC plays is supposed to be classic fantasy and people run around in the according classes, the MC joins up with a witch hunter kind of character who has several six shooters on him. I found this very lame!! The last straw for me was when the author mixed more and more western into the Tolkien fantasy world: train robberies, sheriffs and gunfights.
Annoying, sometimes hilariously outwordly pseudo wisdom at the start of everyo chapter. Not sure if i like the first person writing style as i don´t intend to identify with the character..

I want she if I would enjoy the concept of reading about gaming. I've never played games but did enjoy the book. The characters inside and outside of the game were were intriguing and developed into real people I was interested in reading about. Well done and enjoyable.
In the end I really enjoyed this series. Wasn’t in too good a headspace for listening so probably missed quite a bit but the characters were well written and I was invested in their relationships and development. Weak first chapter but the books get better as they go. Really liked the alternate perspectives too and lots of the chapter opening quotes I want to go back and save.
This series was amazing. A young woman is forced to take in her dad's debt after he died, and she went into a game world to repay it. She had an amazing adventure and made new friends in the game and out.
