well beyond the simple What is NPCs had to pretend to be PCs in a universe that follow RPG rules and are now emotionally invested in the characters and now have a fascinating cross universe conspiracy

book in the series The first really tickled me with the whole idea of a DD book from the NPC POV it was just pure fun The second was pretty good, but essentiallyof the same This one took the next step

and the gang is interesting enough that he doesn t care about the gamers I like all aspects.This book has a lotaction than book 2, thank goodness But there is still a lot of dialogue and character introspection that could seriously get edited out The first book remains the most interesting and my favorite so far.I enjoyed Mitch Co getting some comeuppance BUT it could have been a bit deeper 3.5
