"A truly brilliant first installment...a vivid, snaking, crazy ride."
- Jack Thorne, creator and writer of The Fades
"Erra's Throne strengthens YA... quick and quirky, [it] submerges its reader into the world of young gamers, complete with all the angst and latency of teen years, the language saturated by immediacy and sincerity."
- Lonita Cook, Kansas City Examiner
It all started when Emmy Kim murdered her Raid Leader, which sounds pretty bad if you don't know it happened in a video game. Now, she's been booted from the elite raiding guild it took her months to get into. Somebody YouTubed a clip of the whole thing, making Emmy and Fehns, her beloved level 80 Ranger, internet-meme laughingstocks. Meanwhile, her parents are cracking down, dragging her out of video-game fantasy worlds and into college-friendly extracurriculars in the so-called "real" one.
Nah, Sophomore year isn't starting well at all.
And that's before an ancient Babylonian god starts trying to kill the whole world and Emmy realizes that she and Fehns, together, are all that stand in its way.
Erra’s Throne is a novel in five parts about a kid who has to save humanity by being really, really good at video games. It’s also about family, loyalty, high school, and Kit Kats.
Game on.
