Epic

Hi there again, people in blogland! Patrick R back and rereading a very good book. It is called Epic and it is about people on a planet called New Earth where humans fled to in order to escape wars. This planet is basically governed by a virtual-reality computer game called Epic. Everyone plays and all disputes are resolved in the arenas in Epic. All violence is banned in the real world. (hitting someone can get you exiled, which is what happened to Erik's dad)Most characters are poor, except for the nine members of Central Allocations, who control all the resources of the world and have some of the most powerful players in Epic. Erik, the main character, creates a Epic character (female, oddly enough) named Cindella. He and his friends Injeborg, Bjorn, Big Eric(a.k.a. B.E.), and Sigrid manage to kill Inry'aat, the Red Dragon, after Erik figures out a loophole in its attack pattern. They get lots of money and items and are now trying to solve the largest and most mysterious quest in the game, the Epicus Ultima. I really like this book because it moves along quickly and could actually happen in the far future(but I hope it doesn't). I would give this book a 8.333 out of ten, and would reccomend it to young adults who like science fiction and a fast-paced, gripping read. Thanks for reading, fellow bloggers! Bye 4 now!

P.S. I commented on Tommy's blog, Ms. Pietrzak.
