It is an awesome book perfect for gamers and sci-fi fans. My favorite characters are Ribbon and Cecily. Cecily is brave, kind and quite ambitious even when crossing a high platform when she's scared of heights. Ribbon is an awesome, intelligent girl boss

This book continued on to the story of Wonderscape (Jennifer Bell's previous book). I feel like the story line was basic and it followed the same structure of the first book.
