That night, everything changed. He receives a strange invite to a new online game called Nexus Trials, created by a mystery organization known only as The Nexus. All he has to do is wear a strange wristband—and suddenly, he’s no longer in his world. He’s on a never-ending bridge… with ten thousand other players. When the bridge starts breaking apart, panic breaks out. Only 2,578 make it to the other side. Then a voice speaks: “Welcome to the Nexus. This is not just a game. If you die here, you die in the real world.” From now on, Liam must fight to survive through 10 brutal levels filled with monsters, mind games, and player-vs-player battles. Each level is harder. The rewards are great—but so is the risk.
