Resumen del Editor

The future's getting better; the Game is here to help!

In 2036, college-bound Paul gets pushed into playing a video game called Thousand Tales. Its playful AI gamemaster, Ludo, wants a few favors from him and from his ambitious friend Linda. The reward? Immortality.

Ludo starts selling "uploading", a process that puts a human mind permanently into the game world. In there you can shape-shift, fight monsters, cast spells, even fall in love. The "hero discount" Paul and Linda earn is tempting but ends up separating them. One friend is left to play Thousand Tales on an ordinary video screen, while the other wakes up in its fantasy realm as one of the first full-time residents.

Ludo's new recruit tries to turn Thousand Tales into a society that lets uploaded humans, AIs, and ordinary gamers work and play together. Meanwhile, there's plenty to do in the real world: live on an ocean colony, train cyborg raccoons, and start a new space program.

Can Paul and Linda work together between the real and virtual worlds to make sure no one vision of the future ruins the others?

Virtual Horizon is an upbeat novel of the future frontier. It's part of the "LitRPG" or "GameLit" subgenre combining science fiction with the world of gaming.

A good story on mind uploading

This is a very approachable book on the subject of mind uploading and transhumanism and I would recommend it to somebody in the teenage age range.

Maybe an older teenager due to some of the sex and sexuality described in A PG 13 way

Not what you expect.

This story well it seems to be pretty light hearted at 1st glance definitely isn't pure. It contains heartache fear hatred all of the troops that are in current society. But it does show a possible future. Hopefully one that can be achieved. Without so much problem.

If you're interested in alternate future time lies and possibilities of what could come. I can't recognize mended this story more. But if you're expecting some cutie little story about people being happy all the time you should definitely. Not listen to the story.

I love this villain

I really enjoyed the way the villain operated in this story. It's fascinating to see a villain that's so effective while never losing their cool.

Story stays fun and engaging while investigating some of the complex issues around the idea of becoming an "uploader". I was surprised by how well the story manages to approach the pros and cons from this from several different perspectives, exactly the way the best science fiction does.
