Level: YA
Sequel to: Epic
Picking up after the demise of Epic, Saga infiltrates the computer system of New Earth and addicts all new users. If the users try to stop playing, they will die. The only user that does not seem affected is an anomalous program that did not die when Epic was overwritten by Saga. That user is Cindella. Meanwhile, in Saga Ghost does not know who she is, but she knows she is not in the system and therefore in trouble. That trouble increases as her friends start rebelling against the Dark Queen and instigating a social revolution. They feel the current class system is wrong and want to change it. Ghost and her friends end up allying themselves with Cindella to change the outside world and with a mysterious man named Michelotto, who is an avowed assassin of the Dark Queen’s. As with Epic, Saga created a compelling story that stands well in its own right. I wonder if there will be more to the story.
