“With charismatic protagonists, sharply self-aware dialogue, and gut-wrenching detail—particularly in the visceral portrayal of X-Core’s adverse effects and Ani’s haunting recollections of her mother—this tale of ingenuity in the face of insatiable evil is a deeply infectious one.” —Booklist 

“Combining a love of science fiction with modern technology and some very original thinking, this novel takes a look at some of society’s preconceived notions from a slightly off-kilter view. . . . This one’s a page-turner.” —Kirkus Reviews 

“A fast-paced sci-fi thriller for the geek set.” —School Library Journal

“You don’t have to be a geek to enjoy this fun and exciting cyberthriller from someone who really knows his stuff!” —Brian Falkner, author of Brain Jack

“Lancaster excels in constructing a world where reality―memes, fake news, tech giants―and the not-quite impossible―sentient artificial intelligence―chillingly collide. . . . This one is destined to go viral.” ―Booklist

“Video gamers will delight in the lore of early gaming, and the history of memes is fully explored. . . . Extremely timely.” ―School Library Journal

“Lancaster’s action-packed sequel races through puzzling twists and turns that eventually land readers in a conclusion inspired by intricate video game boss levels. During the ride, Lancaster explores socially relevant issues of ‘hacktivism,’ digital terror, artificial intelligence, and the ramifications of the organized spread of fake information. . . . An intriguing page-turner.” ―VOYA
