Self Reflection

I loved the reflection of character on the part of the MC characte's growth.

This was so fun. I love what you guys did with the avatars, made it very interesting. This story is developing in such a ethical way-good versus evil.
Thank you Mark for doing what you do so well.

A twisted book in the series

Jason Anspach and JN Chaney have written a story plot based on a glitch in the gaming program that ends up twisting every players gaming experience where players avatars are switch with other players and they then must play with their traded players attributes, armor and weapons load-out. As one can imagine, this caused players to readjust both their fighting style but also psychology regarding the new avatar body character class. Clearly, this caused most player's to loose their groove, so to speak.

Overall, I enjoyed the book but, oddly, my impression of Dirk changed significantly. The authors did a great job showcasing Dirk's anxiety level increases as he experienced significant challenges in-game as well as in real life but his eventual self-centered explosion made him seem more like a loose cannon than a leader which, while maybe unfair, made him a less interesting character, even after he eventually turned things around.

Also, the corporate C-level admission that the "glitch" was caused by some malware was left unknown as to who was responsible and how they were able to introduce the hacks.

Book 6 awaits ... for probably another 8-12 months for completion.

Mark Boyett's performance was well done ... again!
