Grimgar pleasantly finds a nice fit between stories like Sword Art Online and Log Horizon. The characters get transported to a game-like world, yes, but it is just like real life. They learn skills, but must master them. Killing is still killing. Grimgar does a great job showing the mentality that it takes to go out each and every day and hunt monsters for a living. This book will keep you on the edge of your seat as you go on this journey with the group of "rejects." You struggle along with them as they try their best just to survive. It's a great read. It's also a light read, not too heavy like Log Horizon can be at times. I'd recommend. Oh, and, Yume best girl, for sure.
