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

brilliant storyline
excellent telling of a well crafted story
characters were brought to life by a gifted narrator. The combination of narrator and author is a perfect match

The best book yet
If you could sum up An Unwelcome Quest in three words, what would they be?
Are you a nerd? Do you dream about playing a game with maximum immersion? Then this book will show you how it could be! Like the protagonists in this story you might regret to have no quick saves before the boss fights though.
Any additional comments?
This book is clearly the best one of this series and putting it back on the track after the mediocre performance in the last book. There are still some flaws in the narrative if you are bothered to look for them but on the other hand you should be ready to be amazed by Scotts ideas!

More please!
Highly recommend. Such awesome books and the reading really makes them come alive and adds to my love of the characters. My only gripe? Why just 3? I hope the author is considering a 4th. I really want to return to this universe as soon as possible!
