That's right, Ian, king of online gaming, is out on the soccer court instead. When Atreus shows up ... everywhere, Ian knows he needs his sister.

When Ian and Lilli finally sign back online, it's clear that Atreus has truly been released on the open web�??and even worse, Ikumi has been kidnapped and imprisoned in a video game. It's back into virtual reality, but this time it's to Mech Ops, a futuristic world of zombies and evil robots�??and the game's not even finished. Will Ian and Lilli have what it takes to jump through unfinished levels undetected? Or will they get booted ... and even worse, are there do-overs in a VR game that isn't even built yet… (more)

Children’s middle grade gamers adventure. With dragons. Disney rated. Ages 8 and up.
Twelve year old Ian, sisterLilli and cousin Derek get trapped in a virtual AI game world of quests and dragons. Suddenly the danger is real and the stakes may well be their very
I’m not a gamer. There were a couple of references I didn’t totally understand but that didn’t subtract from the story. Also because I’m not a gamer, I thought the killing of so many of the creatures that got in the way was excessive. I have to remind myself it’s just a game. Those creatures trying to kill you are not real, so it’s ok to kill or capture them first if you’re able.
A fast moving and engrossing adventure I didn’t want to put down.
A couple of moral lessons which added to the depth of the story.
Loved the wrap up and ending.
Recommended for the young to mid teen adventurer.
2nd book in the Dragon Ops series. Best read in order. MIDDLE GRADE fantasy. Male protagonist.
Ian hasn’t been online gaming since he and his sister escaped from the virtual reality game Dragon Ops. When he receives a message of “Help!” from a
An engaging quest that’s fast paced with plenty of twists and surprises. Not as much peril as the first book, but more real life situations such as Dad working with Lilli on a project and Ian not being a pro at soccer.
Includes lessons on teamwork, talking about problems, and not giving up on the first try.
I had a good time with this adventure and the storytelling.
The concept for the book, Dragon Ops is not a new one, but there are some fresh ideas in the story that do make it unique, however, they are not enough to make this more than an average story about a game quest gone wrong. Lots of pop culture references liven up the story, but a little more humor would have made it easier to identify with the characters and their story arcs. Overall, Dragon Ops is a fairly average story about a video game gone wrong.
