Publisher's Summary:
Legendary Elora Online gamer, Seeker, kills and loots Sid, destroying all of Sids progress in the game. Infuriated, Sid makes it his personal mission to exact a humiliating revenge on Seeker for the sake of all the players in Elora. He succeeds after months of planning, but soon, he find himself in a secret part of Elora Online, Dark World, where he can feel everything in the game with all his senses and cant access Elora or the real world anymore.
As he uncovers the mysteries of Dark World while being stalked by Seeker, his old nemesis who also now has a new race and class, he makes unusual friends who help him claim his summons for Mystic. With each summon, he wins in impossible battles, gains more power, and unlocks the secrets of what Dark World really is...what Elora Online is, and why hes there.
The hits make him bleed, and the deaths are painful. He must defeat Seeker once again, and this time itll take more than a year of planning. Itll take a worldwide war.

The title doesn't lie
This was an extremely fun read, and it's the way the book is written that allows the reader to just sit back and enjoy the ride. By that, I mean that this is written in a smooth and economical style, but is still complex. The narrative voice sounds much like an excellent DM in an RPG board game, and I that's what Larson was aiming for.
He hits the bulls-eye. I came to the end of the book and couldn't believe I had read it in one sitting. But I had -- I didn't want to put it down, and I never did. Really well done. I hope he writes more novels like this, because I want to read them!
Total Immersion Indeed.
Great litRPG novel. The title is not lying to you. Once you open this book you will be held spellbound. The author has a way with words and paints a picture with the very best of them. Whether you want to get into the litRPG genre or are already a fan, this book will not disappoint you.
Get ready to stay up all night because you will not be able to put this down. The story is well crafted and has a great flor. The characters are detailed and interesting, and certainly bring you even deeper into the tale.
well enough written, but felt a little flat
This one was well-proofread, I didn't notice any editing issues, and the writing flowed well enough, but the characters and world felt pretty flat. Maybe it's just that this book wasn't my thing, but I never got really interested in the characters, and even when I wasn't expecting a particular development, it wasn't really surprising. Reading this reminds me a little bit of watching someone else play a video or computer game; little bits of it were interesting but I never felt invested in the outcome.
Fantastic cover and story to match!
SUPER fun read!!! Monsters, action, great characters. If you enjoy LITRPG, this is one you don't want to miss.
MC is simple
I saw some potential in the book, but became vastly disappointed.
The MC doesnât actually do anything but follow a path laid out for him. He doesnât really contribute to the team. He is poor under pressure. And, under utilizes his summons and their powers. Not to mention (**Spoiler**)
His reset parameters are atrocious.
The game system has potential but is never really flushed out or explained (in the sense of the actual values of the numbers and the correlation to damage/abilities/skills).
