SMF - Just Installed!
In the epic prequel to .hack, the avatar Albireo is a solo adventurer in The World, the most advanced online fantasy game ever created. When he comes across Lycoris, a strange little girl in a dungeon, Albireo wonders if she's simply nothing more than a bug in the system. As the two journey further into The World, Albireo watches Lycoris turn all of the rules of The World upside down. Slowly, he comes to realize that she may hold a very deadly secret--a secret that could unhinge everything in cyberspace...and beyond!
I've always come across .hack games for the PS2 but never took the time to check them out. I'll be reading the LN after i finish Welcome to the NHK.

I've only seen the anime of NHK, is the novel good?
I have been waiting for the perfect chance to throw this novel at somebody. If you have not already seen or heard of the .hack// series then I highly suggest you start looking into it. Sword Art Online basically takes key elements from the "trapped in an mmo universe" scenario directly from .hack//Since you are looking for a light novel, start with the novel that started the entire series, .hack//Ai Buster!QuoteIn the epic prequel to .hack, the avatar Albireo is a solo adventurer in The World, the most advanced online fantasy game ever created.
