An amazing new video game has the power to resurrect the brightest minds of the past and see what they’d create in the modern world. There’s just one catch—it requires another person’s soul. Carter Chance, who is a teenage genius, must find a way to stop his generation from exchanging their souls for a computer-generated fantasy. This action-packed thriller delves into the enticement and dangers of virtual reality.
Goodreads Summary
Would you trade your soul to play a game? What if that game was addicting? As for me, the answer is a solid no. For many in this book, the answer is a little less clear. I loved the twist of the addition of geniuses from the past. I have always wondered what our world would be like if incredibly intelligent people prior to us still existed. Carter, the main character, knows that this game can't continue and intends to use his own genius mind to stop it.
Carter is an interesting person; he may be a genius, but he is also a regular high school student. He has a crush, he attends classes, and he balances trying to save the world with all of his other academic duties. His best friend is an unusual fellow who dislikes most people he meets and his crush has placed him in the friend-zone. Overall, this book was a pretty good read and recommended to young adult/teens.

- I'm a young college student who has probably read over 5000 books over the course of my short life; some of the books were classics, some of the books were terrific, and some of the books were...misses. Even with the latter part I will always believe in the power of books to completely remove the reader from his/her present reality. Long Live Books! I would love to read and review books from just about any genre. To contact me: edysicecreamlover18 AT gmail DOT com Thank you for your interest! At this time, I can only accept paperback or hardcover. The finished review copies I receive are either kept in my personal collection or donated to several libaries, schools, or charities-I have no control over the finished review copies after donation. *I claim no ownership for any images used on this site.
