I read a book series called Peremiter Defense, an LitRPG genre series. As an old eve player back in 2013 it made me really wanna come back for some action. The more I read, the more im convinced the story is based on eve.

Anyone who can confirm?

Some striking similarities:

*There are sort of factions called the green house, orange hose, purple (or blue, don't remember) house etc

* All the mechanic in the universe like warp, beacons, gates, systems etc is striking similar.

* Tactics used in the story is very similar to tactics somewhat appliable to game

* There is a group of species called "the sworm" that are giant, betraying, cockroaches. (Now, this is the authors interpretation, not mine)

* the weapons and functionality on the ships has the same name as similar modules available in-game.

Is it just me or has anyone else read these books and recognised similarities?
