Enjoyable but flawed

I enjoyed this book and if you liked the first one you should definitely like this one. The world building is unique and fun. The problem I had was the suspension of disbelief was very difficult in the first half of the novel, even when taking into account the genre and style of the novel (litrpg pulp sci-fi). The characters are unbelievably stupid (literally too stupid to live, though they somehow manage to do so) and the science (not the fantasy element of the science but the basic physics of space, gravity, etc.) of the travel and battles, etc. seems ridiculous. Think "tie fighters making noise in space" bad. Could have been much better if the mechanics of space technology were even passable (google and wiki search level would have been a huge step up) and the characters were as well written as the author's other series.
