Summary

Kai thought he had the best job in the world. Playing VR games for a living. Not if the games are trying to kill you. The Net is the last great frontier, a wilderness of data filled with mysteries beyond imagination. Bugs, a harmless annoyance in earlier decades, have become a deadly menace in times when gamers connect their brains directly to VR.

The Cyber Squad has been created to hunt them down. What used to be game QA in earlier times has become an elite, special force of the future, risking their lives to keep users safe. At first, joining the Cyber Squad seems like a dream job to Kai. He is paid well to be part of the coolest troop the gaming world has ever seen. But soon he discovers that the Net is a way scarier place than anyone would have suspected, and bugs are the smallest problem he and his team will have to face.

I'm not usually a fan of LitRPG, but I liked other works by the author, so I gave this a shot.

I'm very, very glad I did!

I liked the LitRPG elements, and the author's flare for action scenes shows through in those parts. However, what really captured my imagination was Mocikat's take on the out-of-game world. I loved their take on a future where technically nobody needs to work, VR is free and UBI exists, and yet lives are reduced to merely existing for a virtual world.

Really interesting take on a not-so-distant future!

Plus, as a software engineer, I could appreciate the plausibility of the VR world. Particularly the day-0 glitches.

Listener received this title free

So I read the book and listened to the audible version of Cyber Squad. I have to say, the narrator Zach does a fantastic job of building tension and providing voices for the characters.

For the story - this is one for all the gamers out there. If you've ever played VR and wondered where this tech can go - here is a very realistic and terrifying vision of what may happen in the not too distant future.

It's a fun ride with a lot of twists, turns and monsters!

Excellent narration
