Atlas Alone

This series was on my Best Series ballot in 2020. This is the fourth novel in the series, and while they're all set in the same universe and each contains a few references to the previous novels, they're all standalones and each can be read on its own.

I'm not a gamer, and I was surprised at how good I thought this book is, given that I wouldn't have expected that based on the synopsis. The main characters are well-developed, the worldbuilding is excellent, and the plot builds the stakes nicely to the final revelations. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND all of the books in this series.
