Summary
Ever since Martin Banks and his fellow computer geeks discovered that reality is just a computer program to be happily hacked, they've been jaunting back and forth through time, posing as medieval wizards and having the epic adventures that other nerds can only dream of having. But even in their wildest fantasies, they never expected to end up at the mercy of the former apprentice whom they sent to prison for gross misuse of magic and all-around evil behavior.
Who knew that the vengeful Todd would escape, then conjure a computer game packed with wolves, wenches, wastelands, and assorted harrowing hazards - and trap his hapless former friends inside it? Stripped of their magic powers, the would-be wizards must brave terrifying dangers, technical glitches, and one another's company if they want to see Medieval England - and their favorite sci-fi movies on VHS - ever again. Can our heroes survive this magical mystery torture? Or will it only lead them and their pointy hats into more peril?

Great installment
I love this series so much. While it's a fantastic concept well executed, it's the likeable characters that keep bringing me back to this universe. Jimmy is a a fantastic creation while Philip is totally loveable. Scott - never stop writing these!

Not the Best in the Magic 2.0 series
But still very enjoyable. I love the characters in this series, and in this case more than the story. Its not terrible, just a little weaker than the first two. That said, its not a Star Wars Phantom Menace Its not a blot in the series and I would still recommend it

The revenge of Todd
Magic 2.0 has probably been my favourite discovery this year from a sheer fun point of view.
Whilst we all thought Jimmy was the bad guy, Todd the unmentionable turns out to be the real bad guy of the series. The idea of our heroes being transplanted into a (badly programmed) D&D type quest game sounds like great fun on the face of it. The let down for me was that we are effectively repeating large swathes of the book with the two groups of questers, although the game bugs that shows up do make up for it on occasion.
Luke Daniels continues to make this series for me - his characterisation is superb.
