For the millions who log in every day, Warcross isn't just a game - it's a way of life. Struggling to make ends meet, teenage hacker Emika Chen works as a bounty hunter, tracking down players who bet on the game illegally.

When Emika hacks into Warcross, she is shocked when she gets a call from the game's creator with an irresistible offer. He needs a spy on the inside of this year's tournament in order to uncover a security problem . . . and he wants Emika for the job.

well written book struggled to put it down, and very well narrated, very relevant to today's young reading

wonderful

I would recommend reading this one and giving the audiobook a miss - the narrator sounds like AI just droning through the story. The story itself is good, I feel like there’s not enough world building for you to fully feel absorbed by the story. People have compared this to Ready Player One but it doesn’t come close. I would still say I enjoyed the story and might read the sequel but I need a break from that voice!

The narrator will make or break this for you.

decent story, in the same mould as ready player 1. unfortunately there is little variation in the narration, and the audio engineer had a feild day with the highs on the mixer.

decent enough book but with a peircing narrator

Good story reminiscent of Snow Crash classic. The narrator was not great. The whole story was read as if a hyperactive teenager was telling it. It really detracted from the dark serious parts of the story.

Almost snow crash

Not as original and creative as Ready Player One. Doesn't have as a riveting plot and storyline as Red Rising. Character development is lacking in a detailed way. If this is one of your first sci-fi books, you may like it. But if you read many of the towering great, this will disappoint.

Good effort but less than original
