Great story

I loved this book and I wish that the second volume was coming out soon. It is on the trope of the main character dies and goes into a fantasy game but I like that there was actually consequences to him acting out of character. Also kind of refreshing because he doesn't remember every detail of the game so it makes it a little more difficult for him.

Interesting Start (no spoilers)

4.5 stars. This book is the first in what seems to be a 4-5 part series, but it's difficult to find information online other than a post from the cover artist. That post from the artist is how I found this book. The book self/indie published and is print on demand. The cover is glossy. Paper quality is similar to 7seas current prints: stark white and slightly see through. There is a clear inspiration from SVSSS in the premise and the love interest, but the author does a good job leaving it at that. It's a simple story so far with clear intentions to foreshadow bigger reveals in future installments. The protag is indeed a "cute little snack" and, although I'm not the biggest fan of the love interest, the author writes him in such a way that he's growing on me. There are a few errors, but overall it's a good story from a new(?) author. I will be looking for the next volume.
