Updated review 2018: This is a must-read book in the series, do not let the title fool you! It is not a "between the numbers" kind of story, it provides necessary and exciting backstory to the series so far and propels the s narrative forward.
This is a dream, and you are leaving this place to go back to your other dream...you are simply moving from one dream into another.
"Merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily, life is but a dream" the nursery rhyme says. Interlude-Brandon is the third installment in the Game is Life series, and rather than picking up where Danni left off in the previous book we go back in time to see how Brandon got to where he is today. What is reality, and how do we know what is real? Brandon and his friends struggle to keep their bearings as they move between the Game and the Dream.
What if life is a big computer simulation? Brandon has always treated life as a game, and this book show how his worldview has driven his successes. Watch his rise to power, see how the technology was developed, and learn more about the Timeless. Time is still running out... and by the end of this book you will know what that means!
Original review in 2015:
This was the best book so far in the series! I love where the author takes it and how he weaves the past into the narrative. I almost skipped the "interlude" book but am so glad that I didn't!
