Author's Description

The Three Rules of Immersion: Keep the residents safe. Keep the workers in line. Keep the AIs functioning. As we wait for Earth's restoration, humanity dreams of fantasy worlds in Singularity, a virtual space built to keep us sane. When high-profile avatars turn up dead, three agents of SPI, the Singularity Policing Institute, must learn why - and what really happened. Can a cyberpunk, a space nerd & a fairy princess unravel a conspiracy with humanity's fate at stake?

Why I Chose it

Everyone loves a good underdog story involving virtual reality, right? The lucky part of humanity lives in Singularity while everyone else is stuck in the real world trying to make the earth livable again. In the first episode the main character is interning with the Singularity Policing Institute, determined to become one of the lucky people living full-time in the simulation. But there's trouble even in paradise...

[11 episodes so far, with 5 updates in the last 30 days.]

Unrelated Griping

No griping today. If you're into horror (and this is the season for it), you might want to look at what's available. It's not my thing so I probably won't review any of it, but it looks like there are some popular offerings.
