Zack Lightman has never much cared for reality. He vastly prefers the countless science-fiction movies, books, and videogames he's spent his life consuming. And too often, he catches himself wishing that some fantastic, impossible, world-altering event could arrive to whisk him off on a grand spacefaring adventure.

Histoire
In the year 2045, reality is an ugly place. The only time Wade Watts really feels alive is when he’s jacked into the OASIS, a vast virtual world where most of humanity spends their days. When the eccentric creator of the OASIS dies, he leaves behind a series of fiendish puzzles, based on his obsession with the pop culture of decades past. Whoever is first to solve them will inherit his vast fortune—and control of the OASIS itself.

Histoire
In High Earth, digital entertainment is everything. Shows. Virtual worlds. Simulations - there’s something for everybody in a city where working for a living has been rendered obsolete by technological advancements. Even a short walk outside to visit with others is no longer necessary. Just load into the network and you can be with anyone, anywhere. For Asher Reinhart, nothing compares to Ignis; a live reality show that pushes human beings to their very extremes.

Description
For fans of Black Mirror and HBO's Westworld, Otherworld is the first book in New York Times best-selling authors Jason Segel and Kirsten Miller's new YA sci-fi-thriller series.
The future is now. And the future is terrifying.
There are no screens. There are no controls. You don't just see and hear it - you taste, smell, and touch it, too. In this new reality, there are no laws to break or rules to obey. You can live your best life. Indulge every desire.
It's a game so addictive you'll never want it to end. Until you realize that you're the one being played.
Welcome to Otherworld, where reality is dead. Step into the future. Leave your body behind.
The frightening future that Jason Segel and Kirsten Miller have imagined is not far away. Otherworld asks the question we'll all soon be asking: If technology can deliver everything we want, how much are we willing to pay?

Great story
Takes awhile for the main characters to grow on you (I grew to like them much more in the sequels), but some of the side characters have tons of personality and are very likeable.
A strong performance from Jason Segal and a strong middle will more than make up for it.
The Sequel is very strong! if you're looking for a trilogy and liked the preview this is a series that gets stronger and more is explored.

Christian Anti-Video Game Propaganda
Let me begin by saying I have no issue with books featuring Christian values in the forefront, my biggest issue with Otherworld is how surface-level the commentary is. To be fair, it is subtle enough that I didn't notice at first, beyond a few clues. One such 'clue' was when one of the characters mentioned the city of Mammon's name comes from the bible; a stereotypical 'gamer' responds that "nothing from the bible" could be in Otherworld, because its a video game. This made me immediately think of the Mammon machine from Chrono Trigger, and a dozen other biblical references from games I could name off the top of my head. This is important, as it shows that if the authors do have any genuine interest in video games, it is likely very surface level.
While often compared to Ready Player One, which was also very simple, Otherworld beats it in commentary on technology. In addition to virtual reality, Otherworld has a lot to say about AI, and begins to touch on augmented reality technology bridging the gap between the digital and reality. I'm making it sound cooler than it is, most of the arguments on AI are "they act alive so whatever", yes they should be treated as alive the there are deeper questions about the nature of human vs artifical consciousness to ask here. The Augmented reality scenes are also very surface but that does not take away from the main plot as it is likely setting up for a sequel will Augmented reality technology will take center stage, judging from the title "Otherearth". Reality is questioned in a single line of a side character musing if we're in a constructed reality.
The main character, Simon, is completely insufferable. He seems to think himself capable of murder, thinking many times that he "knows" he could kill his tormentors, but cowers whenever physical confronted outside of Otherworld. He felt childish, and this was not helped by the books first-person perspective, as I found myself putting myself in Simon's shoes, and anticipating plot points far ahead of him. The amount of time he needed simple situations explained to him, or blurted out information that nearly gets him killed have me muttering "moron" under my breath more then downtown drivers, as i listen in my car.
Jason Segel's performance was great, no complaints. Only reason i didn't give his voice acting 5 stars is because I just listened to Willful Child and MacLeod Andrews changed what 5 stars means to me.
So why did I pick up this audiobook? Well my friends, I was looking for Tad William's Otherland! The beginning was good enough for me, if a bit boring as character introductions dragged on. I was going to quit 3/4 of the way through, but decided I wanted the catharsis of writing this complete review I was actually about to give the story 1 stars before I read back that line; I almost didn't finish it, but I did out of spite. Sorry if you enjoyed it i guess, i don't like giving low review but i have to go where my heart tells me. Overall, everythign Otherworld says has been said before, argued better, even when targeted at younger audiences. Hopefully my next review will be a positive account of Otherland, fingers crossed!

Thoroughly enjoyed this book.
I loved the book so much. There were a couple times Jason used the wrong voice for a line in the second half of the blood but it was nothing that took away from the experience.

Cringy
I liked the story, very sword art online without any of the combat, horrible fight scenes. I don’t know why an actor can’t read what he wrote in a less boring way but I wish a talented voice actor read this instead. Don’t get me wrong I love Jason segel but his voice work and cringy hero ruins this for me. Good story tho may not get the next book

Jason Segel at his best
Amazing story. The imagery was so clever and real. I felt like I was in Otherworld hanging out with Simon and Kat. I loved how Jason did all the voices for different people and stayed consistent. Looking forward to the next one
