From James Dashner, the author of the New York Times
bestselling Maze Runner series, comes an all-new,
edge-of-your seat adventure. The Eye of Minds is the first
book in The Mortality Doctrine, a series set in a world of
hyperadvanced technology, cyberterrorists, and gaming beyond
your wildest dreams . . . and your worst nightmares.
Michael is a gamer. And like most gamers, he almost spends
more time on the VirtNet than in the actual world. The
VirtNet offers total mind and body immersion, and it’s
addictive. Thanks to technology, anyone with enough money
can experience fantasy worlds, risk their life without the
chance of death, or just hang around with Virt-friends. And
the more hacking skills you have, the more fun. Why bother
following the rules when most of them are dumb, anyway?
But some rules were made for a reason. Some technology is
too dangerous to fool with. And recent reports claim that
one gamer is going beyond what any gamer has done before:
he’s holding players hostage inside the VirtNet. The effects
are horrific—the hostages have all been declared brain-dead.
Yet the gamer’s motives are a mystery.
The government knows that to catch a hacker, you need a hacker.
And they’ve been watching Michael. They want him on their
team. But the risk is enormous. If he accepts their
challenge, Michael will need to go off the VirtNet grid.
There are back alleys and corners in the system human eyes
have never seen and predators he can’t even fathom—and
there’s the possibility that the line between game and
reality will be blurred forever.
