Eric and his new girlfriend are vacationing when a new computer game infiltrates the system of EPIC. Everything
except Cindella disappears, and a new game is left in its place. The new game of Saga has similarities to the old
game; it revolves around class and trying to improve one’s standard of living.
However, Cindella begins to realize that this new game – is not really a game. She also learns that the mastermind
behind the game put a little something extra into it that seeps out into New Earth, infecting the players so they
become addicted to the game. Cindella could kill the Queen of Saga, but in doing so would have to kill two million
of her people simultaneously.
With the help of Ghost, a girl who doesn’t know her own power, Eric must find a way out of this disaster.
The twists and turns of life on Saga make this science fiction novel a quick and enjoyable read, especially for those
who play video games.
