When virtual reality becomes real . . .

Ren Thomas was a gaming prodigy by ten years old and his teens were a whirlwind of esports leagues, world tours, and packed arenas. But by twenty-two, both his electrifying play speed and rocketing gaming career were slowing down. Coincidently, or so it seemed, he was recruited by a secretive gaming company for a new, fully immersive, virtual reality game that had a million-dollar payout.  Only the best gamers were invited to play and Ren jumped at the chance for fame again.  

The illusion of VR was suddenly shattered when Ren gets a desperate warning from the game’s designer, a young woman with a shadowy past.   They discovered that the game was being manipulated to have deadly real-world consequences.  As they frantically race to decode who is controlling the game, Ren has to play one last time to expose the shocking secret before it’s game over for them.  Gamers is the story of a young man’s journey into virtual reality, and his courage to look inside himself to find what is real. 

A rapid-fire thriller for teens to adults

The story started off as more of a biography, more like an inside look at the life of a pro gamer, that in itself would have appealed to me but then as I sat back in my chair with a nice cuppa for a laid back read BANG the action smacked me right in the face, and just like Ren’s Porsche car increasing the action in full turbo speed.
