Description
A brilliantly fun, British, big-hearted ride of a novel for fans of Ready Player One, Stranger Things and One Word Kill.
Life in the near future's NOT ALL BAD. We've reversed global warming, and fixed the collapsing bee population. We even created SPACE, a virtual-sensory universe where average guys like Theo Wilson can do almost anything they desire.
But ALMOST ANYTHING isn't enough for some. Every day, normal people are being taken, their emotions harvested - and lives traded - to create death-defying thrills for the rich and twisted.
NOW THEO'S MOTHER HAS DISAPPEARED. And as he follows her breadcrumb trail of clues, he'll come up against the most dangerous SPACE has to offer: vPolice, AI Bots and anarchists - as well as a criminal empire that will KILL TO STOP HIM finding her . . .

Honestly, considering this has a small formatting error in the first couple of pages, I persevered and I simply can’t thank NetGalley enough for providing me with a copy of this book.
This book was probably one of the best sci-fi young adult books I’ve ever read. The plot was a bit dicey in parts and a bit slow but I couldn’t help myself loving the characters.
Clemmie, Theo, Baxter and Milton were honestly the best cast of characters in a book that I’ve read since I finished IT. I loved the connection between the characters, how the helped each other through every single problem and to see how they worked together was an absolute honour.
CTRL S was probably the best book that I’ve read in June and I can’t wait to pick up a copy when it’s officially released.
I received this book from Netgalley
This is a near future novel full of new tech that is very believable and slipped into the story line in an easily understandable way. It has characters that you connect with and like and a really good story line. Maybe we will all be gaming like this soon. Thoroughly enjoyed it . Review posted on Amazon
