Teams compete in a game similar to capture the flag, where users throw down in a mystical landscape while attempting to steal their opponents’ artifact, a gem safeguarded by the team leader. The game, developed by young billionaire Hideo Tanaka, comes with a pair of lenses that thrusts the user into a virtual reality of their dreams - one where people can do nearly anything. The Warcross duology occurs in a future where a virtual reality game, Warcross, has taken the world by storm. “Wildcard” is an exceptional sequel and final installment in Lu’s latest YA science fiction series.

In the highly anticipated sequel to 2017’s “Warcross,” author Marie Lu keeps readers on the edge of their seats and creates vivid worlds in “Wildcard.” Her imagery breathes life into settings, from ancient underwater ruins to a futuristic technology-infused Tokyo.
