More than OK, but not quite "FUN"

I think this book is just OK for someone who dislikes reading. I read this book for an English project. I don't regret choosing this book because it turned out to be fine. This story begins with a boy called Jack playing a Virtual Reality game. Jack and his friend Kyle both love VR games, so they are aware of a new game that has just been released. Jack and Kyle go to Roy McKee's house for a download of this new game. When Roy opens an e-mail from his friend Greg, who had this game. When Roy asks Greg if he could upload the game to him, the username is lost, and the only error that appears on Roy's PC was "user unknown". After this, Roy e-mailed Billy, someone he knew from the net, asking him if he knew what had happens to Greg. Billy responded that he knew nothing about Greg. He had called him by phone and e-mailed him but he never was there. Billy didn't know anything about "user unknown." Kyle disappears after he managed to download Silicon Sphere. Jack didn't worry much about it He thought Kyle had gotten addicted to the game, and that was why he missed school, and didn't return the calls. One day Jack went to Kyle's house and he wasn't there, in that moment Jack started to get worried. The next day, a girl called Kate sat next to him on the school bus. Kate started talking to Jack about the mysterious disappearance of children all over the world, and that is when Jack tells her about Kyle's disappearance. Both of them start talking and they become friends. The next day, they both agree that it all has a connection with the Silicon Sphere game. What will happen to Jack?? What about Kyle??? Read this book to find out this and more. I really thought this was an OK book, however I only picked it to have something to do my book report. I guess someone who enjoys reading and knows a little about computers and the Internet will definitely like this book a lot. I think this author took a lot of time explaining some scenes of the game and all. This book didn't have too much explanation, nor too little, it had just the right amount, so that you don't get bored, and don't get confused.

A strange but good book

Chris Westwood's Virtual World is a very good book. I am somebody that doesn't really like to read books but I had to read something, this a very strange book but it is a good but book. Buy it, rent it, just get it.

PUT DOWN YOUR JOYSTICK AND PICK UP THIS BOOK !

This book is AWESOME! , If you've evered played a video game that's had you hooked then pick up this book. I'm a hardcore gamer and most of the time I'd rather be mastering the latest video game than reading a book. But not the case with "Virtual World", it was as if I was playing Silicon Sphere along side Jack, Roy, and Kyle. Believe me it's time for you to....PUT DOWN YOUR JOYSTICK AND PICK UP THIS BOOK !
