Blurb:
For the millions who log in every day, Warcross isn’t just a game—it’s a way of life. The obsession started ten years ago and its fan base now spans the globe, some eager to escape from reality and others hoping to make a profit. Struggling to make ends meet, teenage hacker Emika Chen works as a bounty hunter, tracking down players who bet on the game illegally. But the bounty hunting world is a competitive one, and survival has not been easy. Needing to make some quick cash, Emika takes a risk and hacks into the opening game of the international Warcross Championships—only to accidentally glitch herself into the action and become an overnight sensation.
Convinced she’s going to be arrested, Emika is shocked when instead she gets a call from the game’s creator, the elusive young billionaire Hideo Tanaka, with an irresistible offer. He needs a spy on the inside of this year’s tournament in order to uncover a security problem . . . and he wants Emika for the job. With no time to lose, Emika’s whisked off to Tokyo and thrust into a world of fame and fortune that she’s only dreamed of. But soon her investigation uncovers a sinister plot, with major consequences for the entire Warcross empire.

My thoughts:
Marie Lu has another hit on her hands. If you are a gamer who likes to read this is the book for you. Even though this book has a lot of gamer lingo in it, Marie Lu Breaks it down so that everyone can read it. Even if you are not into video game I think you you will enjoy it because of the action that takes place in the book. there is never a dull moment and you will not be able to put it dawn.Now i will say there were parts in the story that were a bit predictable but for the most part i was shocked. the character in this book are strong and independent but venerable at the same time. if you are a fan of Marie Lu's book i recommend that you pick this one up.
