About this listen
Dying in virtual reality isn't fun, but facing bullets from real-world criminal overlords is really the pits. In such a desperate scenario, their demand to render them a service in VR doesn't sound like such a bad alternative. The problem is, the games played by spook agencies follow much harsher rules. For them, the absence of choice doesn't sound like a good excuse - not if you end up in the grindstones of their undercover schemes.
Still, it's not as if I ever had a choice. That's why the price tag for my freedom didn't sound too excessive. All I had to do was log in, become a necromancer, shake the malefic hunters off my tail, pass the elimination test, and locate one particular person. Which one? Why? And how was I supposed to do it?
Wrong questions. Instead, I had only to ask one: Why me? Why John Doe?

A new story
It's like a completely new story. Didn't feel like a 4th book at all. Not bad but felt like a spin off.

A rerun of first book
Disappointing rerun with different angle, too slow lack of action , Sherlock Holmes espionage plot, forgettable support characters. Frustrating after first three books.

Just boring at this point
Its literally reset all his progress from book 1, 2 and 3. So the character just can’t do any of the cool stuff that higher lvls would give. I thought at this point he’d be leading armies and controlling kingdoms but no he just reset twice even the meager progress of book 3 so now he just has to start all over again for a third time which just means more boring repeats of the last 3 books. I feel like the author is just letting the reader get their hopes up and excitement then just saying now “you see all that cool loot skills and abilities that you got, yeh you see that, that’s all gone now and you have to be a complete noob.” An annoying part is the main character doesn’t care really. It’s a good premise but at this point it’s really just
disappointing.
