About this listen

Millions on Earth are shaken by the events set in motion by Zack's final play.

Billions on Tygon watch breathlessly as the consequences of his actions ripple through both worlds. Will his girlfriend, still inside the Game, step forward to lead the movement that he created?

Billions of lives are in jeopardy of being lost based on the decisions made by children inside the Game.

The first book was really good and it focused more on normal life. in this book it focuses on the Sci-fi and tech along with supernatural power. overall it's a good listen and worth a try.

It gets more Sci-fi

If you've ready book 1, just buy the book and enjoy listening. You know it's going to be good, and it is. You won't be left hanging for the next book, but you will want the next book (trust me I've binge listened to them all).

This book basically picks up where book 1 left off, and continues telling the story of our young players in the VR system and goes into more depth and answers some of the questions you'll probably already have, while creating yet more for you to think about. A lot of new ideas are introduced and you'll be left thinking about them every time you step away from listening.

There is little in the way of telling you what's happening in this book without giving too many spoilers, but if you've not yet read book 1, you should as you'll be missing a lot of background information.

Basically part 2

I really didn't enjoy this book at all.

In fact, I got less than half way through and couldn't listen to it anymore,

Such a Disappointment!

Diverting enough story and Luke Daniels is his usual engaging self (though he loses a point for his cockney 'baddie' accent). My god though, the main character in this book is Basil Exposition. Every 10 minutes of so two characters have a conversation to lay out in explicit detail the inner workings of the game system that, given that it is the foundation of their society, they will have grown up understanding. NPCs for example.

Apart from that, it is a decent telling of a well worn trope with some interesting add ons. Doesn't surprise and delight like an Iain M Banks but worth a listen.

Hold the Basil
