Allworld Online is Lindsey Sparks’ entry into the LitRPG genre, a style of fiction built around characters who exist within video game worlds. The two books, published in 2020 and 2021, put their protagonist inside a virtual reality game where each scenario draws from classic literature. The first book takes its title and setting from Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice, while Vertigo shifts to a different source.
The literary twist sets Allworld Online apart from most LitRPG fiction, which typically uses original fantasy or sci-fi game settings. By grounding the virtual worlds in well-known novels, Sparks gives readers a point of familiarity while still building out the game mechanics and real-world stakes that LitRPG fans expect.
