Executive Summary: This series is a lot of fun, and this book might be the best yet. I really hope we'll get a 4th book. Audio book: What more can I say about Luke Daniels? I said he'd be good at reading the phone book, and he obliged me. I bet he'd even do a good job of the Begats. He brings this book to life. It may as well be a radio play. Do yourselves a favor and do this book in audio.Full ReviewI sort of fell into this series by accident last year. It's not going to be winning any awards or anything, but if you want a fun and light series, look no further.I thought that while the second book addressed my complaints about the lack of women from the first book, the plot and the humor were weaker. This book seems the most polished yet. While probably not as funny as the first book, it's definitely the best written. The characters are more developed, the plot is tighter, and in general I was always excited to to start listening again.If you've ever played buggy video games, or written buggy code, I think you'll especially find a lot to like here. I like how some of the supporting characters from [b:Off to Be the Wizard 18616975 Off to Be the Wizard (Magic 2.0 #1) Scott Meyer https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1390179189s/18616975.jpg 24775619] that mostly took a backseat in [b:Spell or High Water 21483760 Spell or High Water (Magic 2.0, #2) Scott Meyer https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1395612093s/21483760.jpg 40223686] were not only more heavily featured, but really had a chance to shine. I especially enjoyed Tyler's running commentary throughout the book.That said, my favorite character continues to be Phillip. Especially when he's talking to Jimmy. And Jimmy of course is as great as ever.If you liked the first two books, definitely give this one a try. And if you haven't given this series a try yet, you really should. It's a lot of fun, and I really hope we'll get more of them.
