From #1 New York Times bestselling author Marie Lu—when a game called Warcross takes the world by storm, one girl hacks her way into its dangerous depths.

For the millions who log in every day, Warcross isn’t just a game—it’s a way of life. The obsession started ten years ago and its fan base now spans the globe, some eager to escape from reality and others hoping to make a profit. Struggling to make ends meet, teenage hacker Emika Chen works as a bounty hunter, tracking down players who bet on the game illegally. But the bounty hunting world is a competitive one, and survival has not been easy. Needing to make some quick cash, Emika takes a risk and hacks into the opening game of the international Warcross Championships—only to accidentally glitch herself into the action and become an overnight sensation.

Convinced she’s going to be arrested, Emika is shocked when instead she gets a call from the game’s creator, the elusive young billionaire Hideo Tanaka, with an irresistible offer. He needs a spy on the inside of this year’s tournament in order to uncover a security problem . . . and he wants Emika for the job. With no time to lose, Emika’s whisked off to Tokyo and thrust into a world of fame and fortune that she’s only dreamed of. But soon her investigation uncovers a sinister plot, with major consequences for the entire Warcross empire.

In this sci-fi thriller, #1 New York Times bestselling author Marie Lu conjures an immersive, exhilarating world where choosing who to trust may be the biggest gamble of all.

THE AFTERMATH 

Jen Alexander

Release Date: August 26, 2014

Hardcover: 288 pages

Publisher: Harlequin Teen

ISBN: 978-0373211326

Goodreads/Amazon/Barnes& Noble/ IndieBound / Book Depository

Fighting for survival, battling cannibal hordes and tasked with grueling missions that test her mental and physical endurance, Claudia Virtue learns that her world is not what it seems in THE AFTERMATH, book one of a new series by debut author Jen Alexander.

                              The year is 2036 and teen Claudia must eke out existence in a nightmarish landscape where food and water are in short supply and danger lurks in every shadow.  Though Claudia is the leader of a scrappy group of scavenging survivors, she can’t control her own dreams, which get more disturbing every night. Claudia soon realizes that there is more to her waking world than she can see – has her mind been taken over by an unseen foe? Are the lives she saves and the formerly-human monsters she destroys all a part of someone else’s twisted game? Perhaps the most frightening realization of all: the more Claudia fights for her life, the less human she feels inside. Can she solve the puzzle of her existence and find a safe, secure place in the world before losing her grip on her sanity and her humanity?

                                                                                                      With its fast-paced, high-stakes story, THE AFTERMATH will appeal to gamers, geeks and all fans of The Maze Runner and Ender’s Game. Plus, Claudia is a tough, smart, assertive heroine in the mode of Katniss from The Hunger Games and Tris from Divergent, the kind of character that male and female readers of all ages respond to with overwhelming enthusiasm.

Now on to the post!

The Story

Our world went to sleep in the spring of 2036, when the sky opened up, releasing asteroids. Releasing blizzards and hailstorms and then a heat wave that blistered the land. Releasing death. When Nashville and her inhabitants awoke hours—maybe even days—later, we were all as good as dead. Our only source of food came from the few factories untouched by the storms—mostly there were protein bars, but sometimes we were fortunate enough to find other food. We prayed for water, for rain.

We hoped for a miracle.

But the cannibals came.

Welcome to The Aftermath.

New Campaign

You wake up in a flesh-eater den with more Survivors. Fight your way through the cannibals to secure your freedom and establish your clan. Make your own destiny within The Aftermath: Become a legend, bound by honor, virtue and loyalty—or die forgotten.

Characters

·        FLESH-EATERS: Operated by LanCorp employees, flesh-eaters are your primary threat within The Aftermath.

·        SURVIVORS: Entrusted with the formidable task of rebuilding the new world, Survivors are The Aftermath’s only hope, and your clan is your only hope. You can earn your prescribed number of points three ways: Main Missions, Side-Quests, and Free Play.

o   Main Missions There are twelve main missions in The Aftermath. Each gamer is allotted the same number of points for completing these missions (see the Main Mission forum in the Community). Remember, all Main Missions must be played before treatment is considered complete.

o   Side-Quests An important component of The Aftermath, at least one side-quest should be completed each week. From the Mission Menu (Continue>Current Campaign>Missions) access the Side-Quests option to view a list of current objectives. Save a group of Survivors, take out a flesh-eater den, or liberate a factory and choose whether to share your findings with fellow Survivors or keep it all for yourself—the more honorable your mission, the more points you’ll earn.

*Note The Aftermath is an authentic, real-time gaming experience; therefore, side-quests are updated frequently.

o   Free Play Earn minimal points through Free Play—navigating the game without accepting missions. Raid flesh-eaters, initiate peaceful contact with other Survivors, or search the ruins of the city for valuable items.

SURVIVORS can also lose points. There are currently five ways to have points deducted:

o   Raiding Survivors

o   Being Captured

o   Refusing Side-Quest to Save a Member of Your Clan

o   Killing Survivors/ a Member of Your Clan If you kill a member of your team, or a fellow Survivor, you will lose 90 percent of your current points. As The Aftermath is a therapeutic solution, killing Survivors is a grave offense.

o   Getting Killed

About Jen:

The character of Claudia and the starting point for the THE AFTERMATH  came to Jen Alexander in a dream. She couldn’t shake the disturbing idea of a person trapped inside a live-action video game until finally her husband pressed her to write the story down. A former personal trainer, Jen’s background definitely influenced the physically powerful main character Claudia and the action-packed plot twists.

A native of North Carolina, Jen Alexander spent her childhood with her nose buried in either a book or a video game, and sometimes both at the same time. Jen now lives in North Carolina with her husband and children.
