Probably one of my all time favorite series of books. This book is the beginning of an absolutely fantastic series that will captivate you from the beginning and not let go until the very end. I rarely reread a book but I would gladly reread this series.

Very well-written, as all Tad Williams books are. It takes you to a place where the concept of computer-land is brought to reality. The
characters are fairly well-developed, but the creation of the land inside cyberspace was brilliant.

Interesting series about an a computer based world and its connection to the real world. Suspense filled with very good character development.

This is one of the best virtual reality/internet-taken-to-the-limit series I've ever read. The storyline is just plain excellent - keeps you on the edge of your seat, and you just can't turn the pages fast enough... the characters are great, and the creativity and newness of the concept is really, really interesting. Read this one.

Science fiction in the style of William Gibson's Neuromancer. Very futuristic, worlds within worlds, where you can build a new persona and live that life within Otherland.
