An English professor gets recruited by a computer company billionaire to go on a mission to take back his private island that he has been converting into a hue high tech D&D theme park. The reason Addie Cox has been recruited is she once had a long-term relationship with the head software designer before he went to work for this company. Addie provides excellent intel for the small band of private soldiers that have been hired to take back the park. The reason for the team to take over the park is new tech was developed on the island that has sunk a large boat and caused deaths and the island has been incommunicado for several months. The story is entertaining and by the end you have to wonder just what will happen next with the corporation and all the stuff they developed on the theme park island. If you like lots of quick references to other SF/F books and movies without explaining them all to the reader then this is a bonus to the story as well.

Aug. 27th, 2021 12:02 pmSonder is the focus of this story and it is set in about the middle of the series but as a glimpse into the series without committing to a lot of books it does prove to be a good read. The story covers the moment when Sonder picks a side in the battle between the Light and Dark mages. For fans of the series, it is a bit of an aha moment where you see the inner workings of a friend of Alex’s.
