Forget Harry Potter. Moving along, Percy Jackson. I don't recognize Eragon anymore.

Have you ever wanted to take Dungeons and Dragons campaign and actually be in it? Not just dressing up and rolling dice, but actually in the world? 
This is it. This is the epitome of books.
You see, these kids are playing Champion's Quest with the help of the Questmaster, Hob. And Champion's Quest is when you get portalled into a fantasy world to complete a quest. You roll dice, you play cards, and you hopefully save the day. The world is SO immersive and incredible. I'm fighting the urge to play D&D right after it.
And the  characters . I love all of them. Hob is a fantastic questmaster and his companion questmasters are equally intriguing, complex, and fascinating. The villains are well-rounded and the power plays involved in the story are fantastically done. Then we have our Champions.
I think Sierra is my favourite; but they were all relatable, well-rounded, and genuinely so fun to read about.
I'm probably not going to shut up about this book, ever.
Ever.

One other thing I absolutely adored is that you really can jump straight into the second book without much a problem. You'll miss a couple references but as they're explained fairly well in this one, you'll be able to enjoy the ride and the quest regardless of whether you start with Book 1 or 2.

Anyway, please, I need the full series now.
