We know how computer virus' can enter our lives, sucking our information into cyberspace. What if that could happen literally? Pulling our very minds and personalities into a platform? This scary topic is the basis for John Reyer Afamasaga’s book, “WIPE.” Two people are responsible for a video game that creates itself by drawing the ideas and inclinations through the controller the players hold in their hands. New levels are formed and the game grows as more people play. More people become part of the diversion. The largest gaming corporations are anxious to discover who has created this monster and the world looks on in anxiety and awe. Meanwhile, a seven year old orphan girl in Russia dreams of a life full of love and devotion. Polina has a friend in Alexvale Rokov III, her penpal who lives in London. What do these two have to do with the game? Apparently a great deal more than anyone would suspect. One player, John Page, is given clues to how the online game works. Will he be the sole winner? Will he be the answer to young Polina’s prayers? This novel is not for the easy reading set. It is challenging, sometimes confusing, if not downright chaotic. Perhaps the author did this on purpose, in the frenetic feel of online gaming and the scattered thoughts of young children in hectic circumstance. The characters become real, as if pulled from reality as in the plot. It is a wild ride based on a fantastical idea. Interesting and entertaining, stimulating, to say the least.
