Travail Online by Brian Simons

Soulkeeper

Book 1: Soulkeeper

A corrupt server, a murderous NPC, and an impossible quest: Save the game. At all costs. 

Coral joined the immersive virtual reality video game Travail Online because her waitressing job, like so many other jobs, was automated by a growing robot workforce. She starts as a Seamstress, hoping to craft useful clothing in-game to sell for real life cash. The game, however, has other ideas. She soon discovers a knack for peeling the skins off creatures she never thought she'd lay hands on and crafting grotesque wearables from them instead. 

What starts off as job replacement quickly launches an adventure of epic proportions through a virtual reality world filled with magic, intrigue, and betrayal. Can she and her new friends rescue the MMORPG world of Travail from death and defeat before it comes crashing down, taking the world economy with it?

Coral, Daniel, and their friends have their heads in the game. But what happens when the game gets in their heads?

When a newly resurrected god starts mind-hacking players and affecting their real world behavior, Coral can't just stand by, even when getting involved may cause more harm than good.
