This is not my typical kind of book at all-- I never would have picked this up on my own and only read it on the recommendation of someone I know. I really liked the idea of this book-- a not-quite-killed NPC in an MMORPG tries to find a way to truly and properly put himself out of his half-dead misery-- but having played very few video games, I don't think I enjoyed this book nearly as much nor got as many of the jokes as an actual gamer would have. I'm quite certain there was a lot that went over my head simply because I'm not sure if I've ever played an MMORPG. The plot is straightforward enough but I never quite got into it, nor did I feel that the characters were all that interesting or well-developed. Much of the dialogue felt really flat or were just set-ups for jokes that I didn't find funny. I'm not sure if this is because I'm just not into games and didn't get the joke or if the book simply isn't that well-written to begin with (I suspect the latter). In any case, I had difficulty enjoying this one and so it gets a low rating from me. Maybe avid gamers will eat this up. ( ) Gamers probably know who Yahtzee is therefore I recommend this to them. My sis gave me this book and I had to laugh- I had no idea he had even written a book! If you like MMOs and you enjoy his sense of humor, you'll get a lot of both in this book. I don't want to say too much and ruin it for anyone who may pick it up so I will just say, Jim the "hero" is a very... interesting... hero indeed. And he's dead. I thought my opinion might change on a reread but no. Its still not bad but Yahtzee has definitely improved as a writer over time.

HTML:In a world full to bursting with would-be heroes, Jim couldn't be less interested in saving the day. His fireballs fizzle. He's awfully grumpy. Plus, he's been dead for about sixty years. When a renegade necromancer wrenches him from eternal slumber and into a world gone terribly, bizarrely wrong, all Jim wants is to find a way to die properly, once and for all. On his side, he's got a few shambling corpses, an inept thief, and a powerful death wish. But he's up against tough odds: angry mobs of adventurers, a body falling apart at the seams — and a team of programmers racing a deadline to hammer out the last few bugs in their AI. *Mogworld is the debut novel from video-game icon Yahtzee Croshaw (Zero Punctuation)!
