Publisher's summary

Adam's muscular dystrophy has stolen his mobility, his friends, and in less than a year, it will take his life. Virtual reality games are Adam's only escape from his wheelchair. In his alternate world, he can defeat anyone. Running, jumping, scoring touchdowns: Adam is always the hero.

Then, an artificial intelligence program hacks into Adam's game. Created by Adam's computer-genius father, Sigma has gone rogue, threatening to kill Adam - and the entire human race. Their one chance to stop Sigma is using the technology Adam's dad developed to digitally preserve the mind of his dying son.

Along with a select group of other terminally ill teens, Adam becomes one of the Six who will forfeit their failing bodies to inhabit weaponized robots. But with time running short, the Six must learn to manipulate their new mechanical forms and work together to train for epic combat...before Sigma destroys humanity.

Top 3 greatest books I've listened too

This is an idea I wish more books had, the world building is spectacular, the narrator did great aside from sometimes not knowing who's who. The only complaint really is in the beginning when Adam first got transferred to the pioneer, the memory loss didn't seem like a big change in the story at all, my guess is it was too make this moment seem scarier to the listener and give us a better idea on what's going on in the mind of pioneer Adam Armstrong. Either way, great story!!
