I've read them all; they're the kind you get hooked on as soon as you start reading. They cover a wide range of themes, and all have a touch of humor, so they're not stereotypical. The last few books, in particular, have very different themes and are incredibly imaginative.

Reader note

The first book features characters gaining various extraordinary powers in a game, with a dazzling array of abilities. The protagonist is humorous and witty, the action scenes are thrilling, and the naming is quite sophisticated. The second book is also quite good, with a lot of interaction between the author and readers. Some plot holes in the early stages might have deterred some readers before they were resolved, but the author's writing improved significantly later on; it's not mindless wish fulfillment and has foreshadowing. The third book has a good plot, but the low rating might be due to the author sometimes being lazy and failing to deliver, or making empty promises. Otherwise, the number of readers would definitely be much higher. The fourth book is written by a new author; the theme is relatively novel, and the writing style needs polishing, but it's still better than some high-score martial arts novels that are artificially inflated. I'll support the new author. The last two books are completed, and a rating of nine or higher indicates a decent plot.
