Locked In - Paperback

by M. J. Lau (Author)

Nobody slays like Everett Starner.

Out in the real world, Everett Starner is just an awkward middle-schooler. But as the rising star of the unstoppable Lordz clan, Everstarr becomes an online legend in the top VR game, Realms of Glory. It's all fun and games ... until a freak accident traps half the players - including his friends - in an inescapable virtual prison.

After a mysterious blue flash, thousands find themselves locked in the game, unable to log out or respawn after death. As the stakes escalate and bodies start dropping in the real world, Everett is shaken from his gaming-induced coma with no recollection of how it happened. As the only one who got out, he feels compelled to go back in.

Everett's once-harmless passion turns into an intense fight for survival, both within the game's fantastical battlegrounds and the effects this all has on his real life. To rescue his trapped clan and unravel the malicious web holding them captive, he'll need to confront old enemies - and new friends - in his quest to rescue his clan.

Locked In by M. J. Lau deftly weaves gaming with reality, perfect for those reluctant readers who prefer screens over books, as well as those who already love a quick, fun read.
