For over 30 years, Dominion of Blades has been the hottest online role-playing game in the world. Any gamer with an immersion rig can enter the world of sword and sorcery, of goblins and dragons, and they can hack and slash their way to glory. But the game is too real for some, and after an epidemic of real-life fatalities, public use of the immersion technology has been banned, causing the game to be shut down.
Jonah wakes to find himself in-game, level one, with no memory of how he arrived and no way to eject. With only two companions, trapped in a world that once hosted millions, Jonah must battle his way across a treacherous landscape, fighting virtual monsters, all too real pain, and a very human enemy in a desperate bid to survive.

LitRPG means Literary Role Playing Game. Simply put, it’s the book version of watching someone play a video game, usually one that’s set up like an MMO (massively multiplayer online) RPG. It’s a blend of sci-fi and fantasy, depending on how it comes to be that our main character ends up living inside a virtual reality. the point of LitRPG is not how we get there, but that we get to be in this virtual reality period, living life as a badass video-game character. Beat the grind and submerse yourself in these addictive LitRPGs.

The story is a little slow to start, but once it does it grabs on and doesn't let go. It builds on details throughout, and it's full of well implemented twists to keep you guessing, which makes the ending very satisfying.
The characters are very well written and unique, which can be rare in the LitRPG genre and helps build a solid emotional connection with each of them. If you've read some of the other reviews for it, you probably already know that it explores some controversial topics, which can bother some readers. But it works for the story and makes it feel more personal.It's also good to see the genre get a much needed dose of diversity.
Overall I can't wait for the next one, cause I got a credit with it's name on it. We need more LitRPG like this!
Delivers on every level...get it?...level?...sorry

The negative reviews are mostly transphobic idiots who were so offended by Jonah’s character (who was a freaking bada$$).
I wish it was longer but I’m glad there’s a second book to listen to.

What other book might you compare Dominion of Blades to and why?
Since its my first LitRPG, i can't compare anything to it. Sci/Fi Fantasy maybe.Any additional comments?
Dominion of Blades, by Matt Dinniman, is my first LitRPG novel. I confess, it was jarring for me at first as I had no idea what a LitRPG novel was. But by the third chapter, I figured it out. And I thought it was such a cool idea. You are basically reading a book from the POV of a character in a role playing game. In this case the game called Dominion of Blades. Reminded me a wee bit of The Matrix, albeit totally different. So the game was shut down due to people actually dying in real life. But poor Jonah, he wakes and finds himself back in it. And no way to log out. His companions suggest they are in prison. And it’s a punishment. That’s of no matter however, the game continues, and they must soldier on through the different levels. I don’t know if LitRPG is my genre, but I really liked this one. Dinniman’s characters are fun, and if you’ve ever played an RPG, you will recognize a lot of stuff. (Level up, level up, level up). All in all, I quite enjoyed this and could easily recommend it to anyone that likes a good story and if you are already a LitRPG fan, I expect this one is a must read.LItRPG is a new Genre for me and its fascinating
