Part 3 : Ponzi

The book ends with a lot of violence and it really comes together. A lot of characters die at the end but the main characters ad gamers who were present throughout the book meet up in the end in Mumbai. The Webblies, which is the gamers union, win in the end. The book also ends on a cliff hanger. It leaves the reader guessing of what would happen next. I thought the book was interesting but towards the end it started to get a little crazy. All the violence was over the top. I guess you could tie the ending of the book to the games they have been playing. he violence was intense and didn’t seem too surprising to the characters. And the part about smuggling yourself overseas in a crate was believable but also farfetched. It seems kind of crazy to smuggle yourself overseas becasue of a game feud. I thought the book overall was okay and semi-interesting but it seemed a little too drawn out and long for my taste. I probably would have enjoyed the book more if I was a gamer and could relate to the book at all. The book didn’t really hold my attention throughout so it got boring here and there. I guess I just hope that this isn’t what a future job or career could be. I think it would be a little sad that a virtual world could flourish so much but it doesn’t really help out the real world. Sure it might bring in money, but it would be better if it brought in useful goods or services with the money.
