Virtual Rebel: Time To Play The Game For Real
by J.Z. Pitts
adventurous
inspiring
mysterious
medium-paced
Wow, what a ride this was!
Ava is a teenager living in a world where virtual reality is supreme. Daily life consists of little else outside of the virtual realm of The Haven, where humans attend school, work, and relax while the alien race currently controlling the earth slowly strip away more of humanity’s rights, all in favor of “a better, healthier planet.” But all is not what it seems and when Ava’s father is arrested and taken away as a rebel, she decides she will do anything to bring him home.
I absolutely loved the world building in this book. There is so much detail and adventure packed into these pages that it was exhilarating, nerve wracking, and exasperating to learn, along with Ava, exactly what is really going on in the world. The book moves through moments in the virtual reality of The Haven, as well as in the real world and I loved the transitions between these times.
Ava is such a strong character with spunk, conviction in her beliefs, and faith in her father and it was inspiring to see her face each new challenge head on. She is brave and determined and I think that made for an excellent story.
This is book one of a trilogy and I am totally invested in the journey and can’t wait to read book 2.
