Description:
"Tension and turmoil add up to high stakes suspense and a plot that will make you wonder if all this stuff is real. Danny Tobey absolutely kicks butt and takes names in this gem of a thriller." --Steve Berry, New York Times bestselling author of the Cotton Malone series "Smart, propulsive and gripping, THE GOD GAME is an ambitious thriller and a terrifying examination of what could--and probably already is--happening in the world of artificial intelligence."--Harlan Coben, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Run Away " The God Game is a fantastic read. I haven't felt this way about a book since Ready Player One . As addicting as any video game I've ever played, I got sucked in from the first page and couldn't put it down. Can't recommend this one enough." --Ben Mezrich, New York Times Bestselling author of Bitcoin Billionaires and Bringing Down The House " THE GOD GAME is a dark, edgy thriller, populated by a vastly appealing cast of teenage underdogs. Danny Tobey has written an unusually smart and provocative novel, a book full of ideas and heart that feels both fantastical and all-too-real at the same time." --Tom Perrotta, New York Times bestselling author of The Leftovers and Little Children "What an amazing achievement THE GOD GAME: a gripping page-turner that kept me up late three nights in a row, rooting for the engaging, wisecracking teen heroes; at the same time a terrifying and weirdly persuasive reverse-engineering of the morality of our present cultural moment. Also a moving and thought-provoking commentary on the relationship between parents' pain and children's achievement. Every time I read the news now I keep thinking I see signs of THE GOD GAME being played all around us, until I remember that it isn't real (probably). I couldn't put it down." --Elif Batuman, author of the Pulitzer Prize finalist The Idiot "A story that keeps the reader in a constant state of suspense, the book is sure to appeal to SF readers, gamers, and anyone else who enjoys a well-plotted, well-told thriller." -- Booklist "Tobey brilliantly captures the immersive, claustrophobic atmosphere of the malign game and its addictive allure for a collection of flawed and needy characters."-- The Guardian "Great characters, a novel concept, and scary set pieces." -- Kirkus "Fans of AI run amok should relish this one." -- Publishers Weekly
