Description

Virtutopia is a new development in Inter Personal Virtual Reality. With the aid of a body sheath which harnesses and stimulates all the senses, anyone can create any world they chose - a world that can be fully experienced, right down to thoughts, feelings, tastes and textures. Two children, Scott and Lucie, are chosen by VirtuCorp scientist Theodore Birkin to test out Virtutopia for themselves. But they quickly discover that worlds are rather more complicated to construct than they had ever imagined. This gripping and entertaining novel raises fundamental questions about who controls who, and why the world is the way it is.
