Description

Winner of the “Most Epic Adventure” Kids’ Comics Award
2020.

From comics rising star Sarah Graley, a fresh and funny
middle-grade graphic
novel featuring a girl who must save a virtual world… and
her own!
Izzy has an incredible secret — she can enter the world of her
new video game!

She meets Rae, a robot who says Izzy is destined to save Dungeon
City from the Big Boss.

How is this possible?! And how can she fight
for this virtual world when she’s got a whole real life to keep up
with: her family (though she could do without her mom’s annoying
cat), and her best friend, Eric.

Things get even weirder when Izzy loses a life while inside the
game, and she starts to worry about what might happen if she gets
a Game Over for good.

Meanwhile, Eric has been super upset with Izzy since she’s been
keeping secrets and bailing on their plans.

Can Izzy survive Dungeon City and save their friendship?..
