For those of you who were awaiting the grinding, the leveling, etc - it's here!A well-written book that evolves our MC from a simple daily grinder to a growing force in the game. Along the way, he runs into trials and tribulations, overcomes a few obstacles, and grows into his new life.An enjoyable read.Now, on to his next objective along with even more responsibility...Criticism:1. Gaming mechanics should have been better defined -- the author missed an opportune moment when the MC himself was beginning to learn the mechanics. I realize that equipment is a major contributor to character growth, but there should be some mention of a character with and without equipment. Additionally, what can trigger growth -- is it all level-specific (equipment, etc) or do other things contribute.The occasional character sheets showing attributes, skills, etc would be a good addition -- it helps keep the reader involved.2. It feels like there are continuity issues when the MC upgrades his account. The "level 0 Grinder" skills (Miner, Engineering Designer) should play future roles, but only brief mentions (duplicator, quartz mining) are made. There should be more detail on the complete character (original & new account)...3. Book length -- I realize that there has been some push by Russian authors to keep books shorter lately, but feel that this book was about 20% short. I am not dissatisfied with the beginning or end-point of this book, but more character detail would have filled out most of that 20%, especially since the series ARC takes place and has impact in both the real and virtual worlds...
