About this listen

Be careful what games you play. Some of them play with you.

Marcus is running out of money, and his streaming career is going nowhere. The chance to win a million dollars by competing in a mysterious, online battle royale first-person shooter seems like the perfect lifeline. Besides, he’s got nothing to lose. Right?

When players dying in the game begin to disappear in real life, Marcus realizes he’s caught in the most dangerous rabbit hole, conceived by the wickedest of minds.

Stuck in this gruesome online deathmatch, Marcus must play at the top of his game, conquering virtual and real-life dangers, while unraveling the jaw-dropping truth behind it all.

A grittier Ready Player One, mixed with Hunger Games for the online generation. If you enjoy being at the edge of your seat and having your ears glued to a book that won’t let you stop listening, this fast-paced, heart-pumping suspense thriller will suck you right in. Buckle up. Make it tight.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

A fun and fast-paced read


The book grabbed me right from the get-go, and it didn't let go all throughout. It's expertly paced, with short chapters that keep you hooked. I especially love the combination between the real world and the game world, with action happening in both places, sometimes at once.

There is a smart thesis underlying the book, that deals with modern technology and the negative impact it can have if placed in the wrong hands.

All of this is topped up by an amazing ending. Really, really enjoyed it.

Amazing pacing

Tense, fluid and well written. The characters are very real and relatable. I recommend. Narrator does a tour-de-force.

Gripping, smart and intense

This book flows fast, hopping from one interesting scene to the other. Every chapter is justified, and most end on small cliffhangers that compel you to keep reading

I really enjoyed Marcus as a main character, as well as the other one (which I won’t spoil) Marcus’ arc feels natural and rewarding

Narrator is excellent. I hadn’t heard of him before, but apparently he’s very famous. I can see what.

Anyway, give this a listen!

Great story! Impeccable narration.

Michael Kramer is my favorite narrator, and he doesn't disappoint here. The story is really engaging, with great characters that have believable arcs.

Nice action, a few surprising twists and a banger of an ending
