As Kelsey delves deeper into the illegal world of virtual reality, her understanding of the Arcana expands and her feelings for Xander evolve.

When Xander's tarot cards fail to give her clarity, Kelsey's training commences. But mystical meetings and storybook scenarios provide her with answers that only trigger more questions.


The great thing about this books being published in serial style is that it always picks up where it left off and that you still clearly remember what has happened in the previous episode. We were left with the question whether Kelsey should override the government or comply with it. We finally got some answers in this episode, or did we? My mind was constantly spinning, when I believed something to be real it wasn’t and when I didn’t well than it might have been real.

Some of the answers might be revealed but for every answer there are two more questions. Karen 
Amanda Hooper is like Kelsey would say “good at answering questions without actually answering them”. After three episodes I still have a lot of the same questions. Which path is the right one? What is real and what not?


With each episode I fall further into the mystery of this book. I don’t know who to believe and trust anymore. And when I think I finally have a piece of the puzzle it turns out to be completely different than I thought it was. I know that Karen thought that she might lose a lot of readers because of this episode but that’s not the case with me. I’m more hooked than ever to this series. I want to find out how everything works and most of all I want to learn the truth. I’m really excited for the next episode in this series!
