<p>Washed up at twenty-four years old is a tough spot to find yourself in, even if your reality is virtual.</p> <p>Back in 2051, Mitch Mantock enjoyed all the fame and fortune that comes with being the top VR gamer in the world. His team, the Nefarious Five, dominated headlines and packed arenas year after year. But since then, Mitch found himself on the sidelines, scraping by, trying to wring the last few dollars from the only game he's ever known.</p> <p>He never looked back to his old life, and as it turns out, he didn't have to. His old life came looking for him. Big time.</p> <p>His world changed when the shocking news hit: the Nefarious Five had gone missing, each stranded in a different VR game world, the clock ticking away at their bio reserves. Knowing he was the only one that could bring them home, Mitch expected new enemies, new puzzles, and worlds he'd never seen before. What he didn't expect was how his life would change forever.</p> <p>Mitch's journey through the unknown pins him between virtual rocks and hard places, settling old scores with his team with one hand while fighting zombie cowboys and giant machine-gunning robots with the other. As he discovers an emerging force more powerful than he's ever seen, he realizes he must make a decision he never imagined.</p> <p>Side Quest is Ready Player One meets Wreck-It-Ralph, a new take on the emerging LitRPG sci-fi genre that takes the reader along through new worlds, exciting game quests, and diverse characters that end up fitting together in the end, rough edges and all.</p>
