Summary

Discover the class you were born to play.

Wren, a seasoned healer, is dismayed when Somnia Online automatically assigns her character, Murmur, to the Enchanter class. Determined to overcome the unexpected setback, she assembles her guild, intent on the coveted number-one spot. Twelve keys stand between her and victory, but finding them is only part of the puzzle. 

Armed with telepathic abilities, Murmur rises to the challenge. However, old rivals have followed her to Somnia Online desperate for revenge. Intricate quest lines become more dangerous as NPCs absorb powerful artifacts, and Murmur begins to wonder just what sort of AI controls the world. 

Murmur questions her sanity as the real and virtual worlds mesh together. Everyone is keeping secrets from her, even the AI, and Murmur’s determined to uncover them.

Brilliant but so bloody irritating!

I love the story but it’s so jarring jumping between the in game action to the slow real word company shit. It’s so irritating and it’s like bloody adverts, you have to suffer through to get back to the action. Sure the intrigue is good but going from dragon fighting cliff-hanger to man working at a desk it’s just arghhhh!

Fantastic! Brilliant story!

One of the few litrpg stories with a strong female Main character. Murmur is a brilliant driven protagonist adjusting to an unfamiliar class and proving she can excel... The narration is brilliant. all around fantastic!

Best LitRPG I've read so far

What it says in the title. This is written in third person LitRPG, it's absolutely amazing. It kept me really enthralled. Can't wait to read the next one.

Great listen

I loved this book, and the audiobook more than does it justice. The narrator is brilliant, bringing character to all the voices.

Somnia online - wow what a lovely book

I have very much enjoyed this book. Its quite a wonder of imagination. Definitely worth a read, or a listen. And I would suspect that anyone reading the first book, will want to continue to the other books in the searies.
