A review by rekastormborn
Sword Art Online 3: Fairy Dance (Light Novel), by Reki Kawahara

5.0

As with the previous two books, I watched the anime first but still wholeheartedly recommend the book even for those who already know the story. If you liked the first two books, I expect you'll like this latest installment. If you like the idea of virtual worlds, true humanity coming through an RPG, and your fantasy and sci-fi mixed together, you'll like this series. Kirito continues to evolve on the page as we learn more about him and the new characters are just as well done as the ones we've met before. If you finished the first two books wanting to know what happened next, this is the answer (or at least the next installment) in a story that shares some of the same themes. I'm very much looking forward to reading book four (which I will be starting moments after finishing this one if that tells you anything).
