"WHO SAYS SMART GIRLS CAN'T FIGHT? Sulan is sick of the lectures. Leave the fighting to others, Sulan. Concentrate on your school work, Sulan. How is she supposed to concentrate on anything when she’s worried about getting blown up or shot? One thing is certain. Sulan Hom is not going to be the girl with a bullet in her head or the girl with a bomb in her bed. She’s going to be the girl with the gun. One teenage math genius. One maniacal terrorist. Their battle for the future of America will be waged in cyberspace. Get ready for a dystopic near-future where the high stakes of Ready Player One meet the fast action of The Hunger Games. WHAT READERS ARE SAYING ON GOODREADS: “Both the “real” and virtual worlds in this book are vividly rendered.” “The characters are engaging: the bad guys are bad, the slightly better guys are still awful in their own way, the traitors are sympathetic, and the good guys are varying degrees of every personality.”  'A great series at a great price!”"
