A role playing video game brought to life in this book. This book is great. This book was a great idea for a book and I enjoyed it. Maybe because I love role playing video games too. I think this book was a great escape for me. * I received this book from the author in exchange for an honest review*

I loved this book so much! When it started out, I was a bit confused with the plot and I was not sure if I should continue. But I'm glad I did. This book took me into a whole new world of card games, artificial intelligence and digital life. It was a new area for me and it is my new favorite. Detailed review with author interview and giveaway is to come soon.

REVIEW UPDATE :
When I was asked by Matt Doyle to read his new book Wick in exchange for an honest review, I was not sure if I should do this or not. The plot did sound promising, but I wasn’t sure if I can do into a world with Sci-Fi setting. Looks like I can and I love it!
Wick is about Spark Form World Championship, a digital card game taken to a whole new world of music, games and artificial intelligence. It was a package of life, love and existence. The story is told from different POVs with different attitude and personalities. While John Forrester, the defending champion, is totally laid back about the game, Meera Thorne is a newcomer who is skeptic about this whole new world. Fahrn Starchaser is badass women with boiling temper, and needs her partner, Maria, while Lana De LA Cruz, is somewhat a confused character and totally careless.
With a wide range of characters, this book provides an insight into every tour of human being we see around ourselves.
It is definitely a fast paced book and keeps you into it throughout, from the first page to the last. And as you finish the book, you want more and more.
Personally, I didn’t want the book to end but when it ended I wanted answers. Hopefully, the next book will provide me some answers.
Definitely recommended to all Sci-Fi and fantasy fans.
