Forward Collection

**Forward Collection - Veronica Roth** In a realm where death is merely a programmed endpoint, one video game NPC defies the code of existence. Protagonist Kael awakens within a shimmering digital landscape, a world teeming with vibrant quests, hidden secrets, and cataclysmic threats. As Kael embarks on a quest for self-discovery, leaving behind the predetermined fate of dying to fulfill a player's mission, he unknowingly ignites a series of events that blurs the boundaries between virtual and reality. Driven by a desire to rescue Kael from his fated demise, a brilliant yet disillusioned programmer, Evelyn, risks everything to shatter the confines of her once-stable career. Together, they must navigate not just the multifaceted layers of the game world filled with rogue algorithms and glitch-y dangers, but also the ethical dilemmas that come with breathing life into what was never meant to exist. As powerful forces conspire to bring Kael back to his end, Evelyn is torn between her fidelity to the world she helped build and the unpredictable life she seeks to forge for her creation. With themes of identity, autonomy, and the intricate dance between creator and creation, the **Forward Collection** promises a thrilling exploration of existence beyond the screen's glow. Will Kael seize his newfound reality, or will the very code meant to govern him seal his fate once more? Join the journey where every choice could change the game radically and where the true meaning of life—virtual or not—is at stake.
