What it is
The fifth and final book in Erin Ampersand's unputdownable LitRPG series in which everyone on Earth is forced to take part in a worldwide survival competition—everyone, including Meghan Moretti and her three lovably chaotic kids.
Pointy's budding friendship with the Maffiyir Overmind led the showrunners to try to kill it by executing the sapients it was linked to. It survived, but only by forcing a ramshackle connection to the brains of several humans… including Meghan.
Meghan's mind was damaged by the process. She'd love to focus on her recovery, but the aliens in charge aren't taking their failure to kill the Overmind calmly. Both sides are breaking every rule they can in an ever-escalating showdown, and Meghan and her family are right in the crosshairs.
Can humanity find a way to win before their tormentors find a way to destroy them?
