This book follows Simon, who is stuck in a dead end job but works more in a day than most others do in a month, and in the same working hours. The only problem is, he does not participate in the company's social gatherings, and the fact that they may fire him for this coupled with the other that his supervisor lodges a complaint about him every other day, he quits and buys a new gaming system. It is an extremely advanced VR System and he delves into the world of Apex. Inside he meets new friends, meets new enemies, fights monsters, and gets targeted by the strongest thing on the island. Throughout the story he slowly loses his distinction between what was reality, and what is the game.
I really enjoyed this book. Very well written although I did get bored at parts. My main problem with the series was book two, which had many more boring parts and it wasn't developing in the way I wanted it to. I did still enjoy it though, it just wasn't great. I do think this is a good series though and you should definitely read the first book if nothing else, and the ending of the second book made it obvious the next book is going to be good (and develop the way I was hoping it would).
