Book Review: The Last Level Of Sanity

 

Hazel and Jack thought Mahkra was just another quiet town. A place where nothing happens.

Until they discovered Oblivion’s Embrace.

The game doesn’t just twist landscapes and summon nightmares. It learns. It feeds. It turns their deepest fears against them. And when the shadows of the game begin leaking into Mahkra’s streets, neither can tell where the screen ends and reality begins. For Hazel, it’s the fear of losing Jack. For Jack, it’s the memories he can’t bury. Both are trapped in a spiral where love, grief, and obsession blur into something monstrous. The deeper they play, the more it feels like the game isn’t asking them to win. It’s asking them to survive.


My Review

Hazel and Jack are in a relationship. That relationship also extends to their love of playing video games. Hazel encounters an enemy in the game and loses. Only she realizes that she was not just playing the game but is in the game. Jack is in the game as well. 

I can totally relate to the loss of hours when sitting down and playing a video game. There have been many times when I looked at the clock and said to myself, "Ok, just a half an hour more and that is it.", only to find that another hour or so has gone by. 

This book was not just about the horror, but it also ha an under laying, emotional story to it as well. It explored Jack and Hazel's relationship. I really did like this book and will be checking out other books by this author.
