This book takes place in the future, where you can play virtual reality video games that make you really experience the game. It is the story of a girl who tries to play a difficult game called Heir Apparent. While she is hooked up to the machine, however, a group of protesters damages it. The effect of this is that she must beat the game to get out of it. If she doesn't, she will die in real life. The only problem? Every time you die in the game, you have to start from the beginning.
This book is exciting and creative. The characters are enjoyable and realistic (well, the ones that are real, anyway) and the plot is strong. This is a inventive and absorbing book.
