Cordova, Jason - Corruptor

by Jason Cordova
The action moves back and forth between the game, as players realize they cannot log out voluntarily, and the game company, desperately searching for the hackers as time is running out on the gamer/hostages. One thing the hackers do not know is there is a secret "weapon" in the game on the side of the company; communication between the VR world and reality is difficult, but not as impossible as the blackmailers think. Gradually, the gamers realize something is wrong and begin to work together to try and help the company from inside the game.
"Corruptor" is very well-paced and makes the reader anxious to turn the page to see what happens next. The virtual reality gaming world may not exist in this form yet, but I would not be surprised if the final product comes very close to Jason Cordova's concept, including specific gaming rules and perceived interactions between players.
I high recommend this book to gamers and hard sci-fi fans especially, as it is a very polished, believable look at the world of gaming and the technology that will be required to cause interactive VR games and simulators to exist.
