Written by Hiroshi Sakurazaka, this book personally to me who was a hardcore avid online gamer was an awesome read.
"Etsuro Sakagami is a college freshman who simply drifts through life, but when he logs into the combat MMO Versus Town, he becomes Tetsuo, a karate champ on his way to becoming the most powerful martial artist around. While his relationship with new classmate Fumiko goes nowhere, Etsuro spends his days and nights online in search of the invincible Ganker Jack. Drifting between the virtual and the real, will Etsuro ever be ready to face his most formiddable opponent?"
The sypnosis on it seems weird, but this is not what the book is just directly about, you will find it has underlaying details of the MMO world and how it works, their lingo, its inner structure, it goes into RMTing which I found interesting and how it can consume people's lives, its a great read, advise checking it out.
