This was a wonderfully done scifi novel, it had what I was looking for in this type of book. I enjoyed the use of the gaming competition as the scifi element. It was a interesting concept and I think it was well done. I enjoyed getting to know Dennis and his son. It was a great moral dilemma and when does trying to do good go bad. It was a great contrast in the storyline.
"If Dennis could take them out of the game, he would be eliminating the only thing standing between him, Orin, and the life they deserved. And didn’t Dennis and Orin deserve the win, and the prize, more? This was just another trophy on a shelf sagging beneath the weight of so many others for the Wilders. But for Dennis and Orin this really meant something. Surely, they deserved it more."
