Publisher's Summary

Do you like…kobolds?

Do you like…necromancers?

Do you like…pineapple on pizza?

Well, if you answered yes to the first two questions, then this is the book for you. If you answered yes to the third, well…my mother taught me not to say mean things to people…even if they do deserve it!

Money, as they say, is the root of all evil. Not having money, that is. When budget cuts at the high school where JT teaches threaten his mortgage, he’s forced to seek an alternative source of income.

Using the latest VR technology that lets the body rest while the mind is at play, our digital entrepreneur dives into the latest VR MMO game Argos Online with a potentially exploitative character build no one saw coming: the Kobold Necromancer.

He’s got all of spring break to see if he can grind the system for all it’s worth…or end up spring broke in search of a new place to live with his wife and young son.

YES: Stats, cursing, kobolds, slice of life

NO: Harem, explicit, pineapple on pizza

Fun story

Loved the story. Great character development. The game world was well thought out, even thought he author contradicted himself about enchanting not being a thing when the MC got Runecrafting saying enchanting didn't exist in the game, then mentioned enchanters existing 2 or 3 other times later. I loved the video game, and 80s pop culture references as well.

Even though the author mentioned that this book was intended to be a stand alone novel originally, I hope that he will write another one. I'd love to see a sequel. I can tell from the crafting progression that the author played WoW, but there were other things in the game which hinted that he also played original Everquest as well. It was nice to see the influences.
