Austin Stone is the best Star Runners player there is. But it's not a game, it’s real . . . and he's about to become the greatest hero in a war that spans the stars.Austin's just a typical teenager, struggling with school and the loss of his father. He’s also a living legend as “Rock,” one of the best players of the hugely popular Star Runners MMORP—but that’s just a game right? Suddenly he’s got a scholarship to an intense military school and he and his friends learn the truth: everything in Star Runners is real. If he works hard and survives, he will become a real-life fighter pilot in deep space, a hero of the freedom-loving Legion. Well before he’s ready, and before anyone expected, Austin is thrust into the center of a very real war with the Zahl Empire. Will he be able to save the people that matter to him most or will his adventure in space end before it begins?
