In a future world where the internet has taken over, Mallory Singer is about to find out that reality is a lot scarier than virtual reality. When her best friend disappears into an online game called Apocalypse Online, Mallory jumps into the game to save him. But she’s in for more of a scare than she bargained for—the madman who created Apocalypse Online plans to use it as a tool of global destruction! Now Mallory must team up with other players from around the world if they want any hope of stopping the apocalypse… I’m usually not a horror fan, but the premise of this book sounded really interesting so.
