Book Overview
Imagine a life of virtual reality -- a childhood contained in a controlled environment, with no human contact or experiences outside of the world of computer-generated images. Corgan has been genetically engineered by the Federation for quick reflexes, high intelligence, and physical superiority. Everything Corgan is, everything he has ever seen or done, was to prepare him for one moment: a bloodless, computer-controlled virtual war. When Corgan meets his two fellow warriors, he begins to question the Federation. Now Corgan must decide where his loyalties lie, what he's willing to fight for, and exactly what he wants in return. His decisions will affect not only these three virtual warriors, but all the people left on earth.

Virtual War is the Best Science Fiction Book
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
This is a really good book. I used to hate Science Fistion Books but for school I had to read one. One of my friends told me to read it. It is a bout a fourteen-year-old boy who lives in Wyoming in the year 2080. After Earth is infected but many diseases there is a war over an island that is not infected. Corgan and two other people Sharla, and Brig. They have to help Corgan win the war. This is one of the best books I've read. If a 12-year-old girl tried it and liked it you should too. It is fun and exciting. It gets you hooked in the second chapter.
Definitely worth reading.

This book has strong points in every field. The premise is interesting, the writing style is easy to follow yet not overly simplistic, the characters are developed nicely, and the plot is intense. It is overall very well-written, and worth checking out.
5 stars and 2 thumbs up!

This is a great book. I highly recremend it. The way it was written makes you feel like you're in the war and seeing it first hand. It was full of action and set in the future, and its plot introduced a creative way to think what the furure is going to be like. Even more important than the idea of what the future is going to be like was how they fought the war. The war was in virtual reality, which meant nobody actually died, even though the fighting felt very real. That is a great idea. Virtual War has suspense, action, great characters, and is extremely exciting. You've got to read it!
The book was awesome
