Book excerpt: As a video game world faces virtual apocalypse, the Skids stop playing and start fighting for their lives in this award-winning debut young adult novel. They’re called the Skids. They’ve got three eyes, tank treads, and a bucket-full of attitude. They live to play the games, score points, and try to make the next level before getting vaped—all for the notion that someone out there must be watching. Johnny Drop’s the best skid the Skidsphere’s seen in generations, but he won’t get to enjoy it for long. Because his world is about to die. And then Johnny’s going to learn that the universe is larger than he ever dreamed. Part Hunger Games, part Ready Player One, and a bit of The Matrix smashed into the mix, The Skids is the Copper Cylinder Award–winning debut novel in the Skids Trilogy.
