Binary is cool!
This is the sequel to Bluescreen and it definitely adresses some of my qualms with the first. There is a lot more action in the game in this sequel, the Cherry Dogs get into a tourny and it is the main focus of the novel. I love the group effort that present throughout this book, unlike many dystopian society novels where the main character can barely trust anyone and they feel like they have to save the world all by themselves and keep secrets and feel personally responsible for every death their stupid plan caused, this is a breath of fresh air. Everyone plays a part and Marisa definitely couldn’t have done it alone.

Political conspiracy
The First Lady of Mexico is a wanted woman, wanted for the murder of her husband, the President...

A cat and mouse game between her and the authorities who want her caught and bought to justice, Determined to try and prove herself innocent and not knowing who to trust and where to turn she leaves her family behind to try and find the truth...

The story is gripping and fast paced and reminds me of 24 in some ways, you feel for the characters and get drawn into the story with enough twists to keep it interesting. This is one of the better political thrillers of recent times.

First off, I'm not sure what category this book is supposed to be. It is a Mystery/Fantasy but for me personally it was also borderline Horror. As an arachnophobe, it was incredibly hard for me to keep reading when the descriptions of the spiders were so good. Believe me when I say I had no idea that this book involved spiders or I would not have downloaded it in the first place.

Saying that, it would have been my loss. This book is incredibly well written, with twists and turns aplenty, love and betrayal, trust, honour - it's all here.

It has been compared to DUNES which may help you to decide if you want to read it.

Its utilisation of teamwork is key. Its loot in-game makes every game a different challenge. Character skins are unique and differ with each character. (0 more)
Bad teammates makes experience bad so would recomend playing with a group of people you trust and can rely on. (0 more)
It's a great passtime
This game is a battle royal in an ever changing world. Each game brings its own challenges be it; your teammates teamwork, what loot you find, be it where you drop. Some players on your team are helpful some are straight up useless but means changing game strategy to more cautious. Would recommend to someone else but the warning is play with your friends that you can rely on.
