A video gamer’s championship aspirations are dashed when his parents send him to Camp Reset
where electronics are forbidden and you're forced to socialize eat healthy and spend time
outside. Gamerville is a timely and vulnerable exploration of the importance of human
connection and what it means to run in a pack brought to you by award-winning author Johnnie
Christmas. Max Lightning is howling at the moon—he’s finally qualified for Gamerville a
championship where players compete to be top dog in the multiplayer video game Lone Wolf of
Calamity Bay. But his dreams of domination are doomed when his parents send him to Camp Reset.
Gone are the long nights of downing energy drinks and getting copious amounts of screen time.
They've been replaced with fresh air and group activities under the hot sun—a shock to the
system for a lone wolf like Max. Can Max escape Camp Reset and level up at Gamerville or has
he finally played his last match? Praise for GAMERVILLE: An Indigo Staff Pick A Barnes & Noble
