Description

A brand-new Escape Room adventure from bestselling author, Christopher Edge. Discover an epic new world packed with puzzles, action, danger and bravery - a virtual escape room where anything is possible and nothing is as it seems...

When the sky turns black with a huge murmuration of birds, Eden thinks it’s the end of the world. But as the swirling flock forms an endlessly spinning circle, she is transported into The Escape. It’s the ultimate virtual escape room, a game no one else knows exists, where anything is possible and nothing is as it seems.

In this epic world packed with puzzles, challenges and danger, she meets Ted. Together they travel through epic landscapes of forests, mountains and deserts, facing bigger and bigger obstacles as they search for the keys to unlock this world, progress to the next level, and reveal the secrets of The Escape.

But it’s only a game if you can stop playing. . .

Featured Reviews

Eden is great at solving escape rooms. They've done liars recently, in real places with their friends,and online. When her online pal Ami sends her a series of clues,Eden finds herself in a real escape room world.

She encounters Ted and without really working together,they solve the whole thing between them. But Ted believes that Eden is simply a non playing character in the game...is he right? Is Eden not really there?

Really engaging middle grade fiction. Very easy to get caught up in and not notice the time.

I was over the moon when this arrived and I’ve proper raced through it today! Loved being back in this world of quests, puzzles and thrills. Eden is so brave and so smart. I really enjoyed all of the chat about humanity and the beauty of our word. Christopher Edge is just brilliant!

I really enjoyed the concept of this book. The puzzles and world building were particularly clever and it had me hooked right until the end. Reading this as a primary school teacher, I can imagine this captivating many 10-11 year olds. The idea of being inside a ‘real’ video game is something I know would have been very appealing to read when I was that age. A great book! I look forward to any further stories in the future!

A great book that's got plenty of twists and turns. It's unsettling in a 'this maybe could happen' kind of way. It's also clever, interesting and pacy. The twist at the end is great and left me wanting more!
