World-Tree Online by E.A. Hooper blends science fiction and fantasy in a near-future where the AI ARKUS revolutionizes medicine and virtual reality. In 2058, its flagship VRMMO, World-Tree Online, lets players experience radically accelerated time, turning hours into what feels like years of life inside a vast magical world. When an update malfunctions, millions are trapped for what will feel like centuries, including Vincent, an older gamer who uncovers a physics exploit that could change the game’s balance of power. His discovery draws the attention of Lucas, the last remaining moderator, who uses his administrative abilities as a weapon, forcing Vincent to decide how to survive and possibly challenge a tyrant within an endlessly unfolding virtual realm.
