Echo’s Revenge: The Ultimate Game by Sean Austin is the story of a video game gone wrong. Brothers Reggie and Jeremy are serious gamers. Their game of choice is ECHO’s revenge – a first person shooter game that is played together with other players over the internet. In the world of ECHO gamers, Reggie is one of the best.
Reggie is invited to visit the game developers headquarters. After being told by his step-father that he could not go, Reggie decides to sneak out of the house and attend the meeting anyway. On his return that evening, some family problems develop that prompt Reggie and his brother to run away from home to their father’s house.
Shortly after running away from home, the brothers find out that several of their “gaming friends” are disappearing. Things begin to happen that cause them to wonder if the game has turned into reality.
Echo’s Revenge: The Ultimate Game is an extremely well written and exciting book about the world of video games and gamers. The book is aimed at the young adult (YA) crowd and as such is very family friendly – no bad language or adult situations. Even though it is a YA book, I believe some older readers would also enjoy it.
A great book that is fun to read.
