Graduate student Valier Russell investigates the mysterious addictive qualities of a popular new computer game and the disappearances of more than seventy avid players. Original.
I read this maybe 3 years ago? And I remember thinking that the story was so underground, I'd never heard of the book before. And then I read it and thought 'hey this is actually an interesting read'! I loved the story. However, I was truly disappointed in the ending, and the whole 'pray with me, please' I had never read any references to religion in the book and to end it on that was a bit 'eh, really?'
Atlantyx captured me from the start. Imaginative and mysterious, it portrays the yearnings of the heart for a greater reality-and the vulnerability of the heart to false realities. It’s a captivating story.
I really liked this story, but the ending sucked. For instance, what happened with Troy? The end was way too abrupt and did not satisfy me at all. I'm feeling like I've been cheated...
Interesting read, virtual reality tech concepts are a bit dated. Christian message. Can tell the author is not a gamer. 😁 Not amazing, but an interesting read.
