Has anyone read this series? It is set in the near future when virtual reality and the internet are connected and much more advanced, and a group of assorted characters go online in full immersion virtual reality and then find they cannot log off. It follows their adventures through a succession of game like realities as they try to find out what is holding them and why. It has science fiction, fantasy, thriller, crime and a little horror all in the mix. There are four books and I was really drawn in.

Ooh.. I like the sound of those. :D You're coming up with some good suggestions for me to try. Too many books, not enough reading hours!! :(

Otherland is a good series. Enjoyed it.
Shadowmarch is a good start to his latest trilogy.

My husband loved them and got me to read them and I really enjoyed them, I'm not a big fan of sci-fi or series like him but they were really good and it was nice sharing a series with him.
