Aethyria Online is the world’s premiere virtual reality gaming experience, and for Marcus Meyers, it’s all he knows. 

One day the game’s CEO broadcasts a message to all players that an extinction level event is headed for Earth in forty-eight hours, and that the only way for humanity to live on, is for people to upload themselves into the game. Forever. 

Gem is the most important person in the world to Marcus, and the only woman he’s loved since his mom died, but he hasn’t seen her in days. 

Marcus has no choice but to do what it takes to find her and get her to safety before the cataclysm, no matter what he may lose along the way.
