Like many other people, I've always been fascinated when hearing stories about EVE online, when something really big happened occasionally and it always sounded amazing, but I would never actually play the game myself. Still, I really wanted to know about some of the things that happened in it: history, wars, feuds, ...

I found this book. I loved it. It does exactly that: details the early years of EVE Online, giving you a chronological overview of how the game evolved, how alliances were formed, the many wars that happened, ... It's kind of thrilling and I love that this all happened in a fucking videogame.

Still– maybe I would've liked for the book to be longer, for him to go more in-depth, and the book DESPERATELY needed an editor. The things it describes are so cool, but the actual writing is so-so.
