Zero wants to train Emika to hack into Hideo’s mind by challenging her to a Warcross Duel in the Dark World. He knows he is Sasuke Tanaka and Hideo’s brother, but it doesn’t mean anything to him? Weird. We finally get to meet Zero and he’s still as mysterious as ever. Emika ends up calling Hideo and well it’s not a very happy chat between the former partners. Not cool of Jax to drug Emika to take her to meet Zero. They are a TEAM.Ĭut to Emika walking home and Zero contacting her to tell her she’s got assassins after her. I love how they refuse to let Emika do this on her own. So, we start our Wildcard journey with Emika reuniting with The Phoenix Riders to discuss how they are going to stop Hideo from taking over the world. OMG THAT PROLOGUE! LU YOU ARE SUCH A TEASE!!!

So, when my iBooks notification popped up at midnight to let me know that it had been downloaded, I was ready to begin my binge session. I’ve been patiently waiting for it since that shocking ending to Warcross. Wildcard was a top priority read for me in September.

The Warcross duology is an action-packed, intense, and exciting adventure in the world of gaming that won’t let you breathe till the last page.Īnd now onto my Bitmoji Review of Wildcard! Also, you’ve been warned: The sequel finds Emika struggling to come to terms with a harsh truth she learns about Hideo and keeping herself alive long enough to prevent the misuse of technology at the hands of a misguided adversary. Emika travels to Tokyo and is at once embroiled in a dangerous conspiracy. All that changes when she is unexpectedly hired by Hideo Tanaka, creator of Warcross, to investigate the very security breach that resulted in her accidental glitch into the championship game. She’s on her own and leading a tough life. In the first book, we meet Emika Chen, bounty hunter and hacker, just barely surviving in New York. Marie Lu’s latest series is a futuristic sci-fi story about a virtual reality game called Warcross. Wildcard is the second book in the Warcross duology.
