Publisher's Summary

As he looked at life...

...surrounded by the trappings of success...

Austin wondered, is there anything else? 

He made it to the top. As CEO of an asteroid mining company, Austin has accomplished everything he ever wanted in business. Now, he needs more. To get away he turns to a fantasy video game. 

Is virtual reality the answer? 

Should he pick, elf, gnome, caster, or swordsman? 

He just wants peace and quiet, play as a dwarf, build a house, do some smithing and character building. His idea of the perfect fantasy game. Then he learns their secret. 

Deceit hides in the shadows. 

And the truth is all around. 

Austin will need to level up. 

If he gets caught, it means death. He’ll need help along the way. How can he convince anyone they’re slaves in a bigger game and stay under the radar? If Earth was a simulation and the game was real...

Who can he trust? 

You’ll get hooked on this first book (of 11) in the Emerilia LitRPG series, because the characters grow and advance in the most believable of ways and the plot twists are fantastic. Any sufficiently advanced virtual reality makes it indistinguishable from reality.

Get it now.

Michael Chatfield does it once again!

Well I was trying to find a new series to keep me busy while I waited for Chaos Seeds/Expeditionary Force/10 realms/ether collapse/spell monger to release new books. I tried a few new ones like War Aeternus...etc.... and was none to happy with the few new ones I tried, until I got frustrated and started looking at Authors I like, well thats how I stumbled upon this gem by Michael Chatfield, I wont give any spoilers but I will be adding this series to my top list like the ones I listed above.

The story pace is great with great character development, the MC is technically not stuck in the game but also stuck in “the”game, so there is the possibility of logging out of the game but not in the traditional sense, that makes sense right? Look its all backwards from here, once you start the series you will understand .
Lots of funny moments with very colourful language for an extra laugh, oh and some pretty decent sex scenes if your into that kind of thing.

Very well written and the voice acting was mostly on point.

Entertaining story with flaws.

I felt all the extra cursing was misplaced. All it added to the story was turning what was otherwise a tween story into something I can't play for the kids. The timing points annoyed me with their inconsistencies. Romance felt forced like it was added as an afterthought for character development. At least two parts in the story have repeated lines in Narration. All that being said it was still an entertaining story.

a nice lit RPG

An interesting twist on a classic trope. I have much hope for this series, since the first book was so much fun.
