About this listen

Bart Minnock, founder of the computer gaming giant U-Play, enters his private playroom, and eagerly can’t wait to lose himself in an imaginary world, to play the role of a sword-wielding warrior king, in his company’s latest top-secret project, Fantastical.

The next morning, he is found in the same locked room, in a pool of blood, his head separated from his body. It is the most puzzling case Eve Dallas has ever faced, and it is not a game.

Lt. Eve Dallas is having as much trouble figuring out how Bart Minnock was murdered as who did the murdering. The victim’s girlfriend seems sincerely grief-stricken, and his quirky-but-brilliant partners at U-Play appear shocked as well. No one seemed to have a problem with the enthusiastic, high-spirited millionaire of course, success can attract jealousy, and gaming, like any business, has its fierce rivalries and dirty tricks—as Eve’s husband, Roarke, one of U-Play’s competitors, knows well. But Minnock was not naïve, and he knew how to fight back in the real world as well as the virtual one.

Eve and her team are about to enter the next level of police work, in a world where fantasy is the ultimate seduction—and the price of defeat is death.

Just another fantastic In Death story.

Like every one of these books, I love them. I love the storyline, the characters, the relationships between all the main characters.

Avoid

Horrific. The characters are unbelievable and childish, the phrasing is clumsy, the attention to the world is perfunctory (I understand it’s impossible to predict the future and Wifi/cloud technology, but even at time of writing, thumb drives, not discs, we’re the norm). The author displays their contempt for the subject matter in having the gaming world businesspeople as emotionally retarded. And the relationship between the lead and her partner is just cringeworthy.
