Reviews and Comments
When I started this book, I had no idea what to expect. I didn't even remember signing up for the giveaway on Goodreads. I was very pleasantly surprised by this. I lked this, but had to read the first chapter twice because it was easier to understand after I knew what was going on. In this we have two different settings. One is the real world, the other is a virtual reality. There is a lot of action in this, and the author write those scenes very well.
