Recently I read a fiction book “Saga”, by Conor Kostick. I feel the theme of this book is that not everything may be what it seems. This book is the second in a series, so I would recommend reading the first book first.

The book follows Eric, a human on Earth. After destroying the game that everyone used as a job, they don't know what to do. A new world pops up and everyone starts playing that one, but not is all as it seems. The characters in the new game are sentient, not just NPCs. And even worse, the Queen of the virtual world has poisoned the minds of all the humans. I will stop here since it would be no fun to spoil the book for anyone.

I really quite liked this book. This series was one of the first young adult books I read in my life. I have read this book twice before, but it didn't seem to be as good the first time around. I like all the books in the series, but i'm not sure which is the worst, this or the third. Anyway, the first thing that comes to mind is the plot of the book. This book has citizens of Earth playing a videogame that is more than just for fun. I dont really know of any other books like this. The author does do a few dumb things in the book. For one there is a bit of stereotype towards people in this book. There are also a decent amount of word errors, but the author is from a non-english country.

This book can be hard to follow sometimes. There are parts of the book where it expects you to know what is going on without explaining this. The good thing is there is very little of that. Another issue is the book isn’t written too well. Sometimes it feels like the author was writing the book just to get money.

Overall its a good book, but not one that I would put on top of a wish list. Some pros are the good character development, the detail, and the whole idea. Some cons though are the quality, spelling, and understandability. I give it a three and a half out of five.
