Synopsis

Mindwalker is an action-packed YA sci-fi novel with one central question at its core: would you ever surrender control of your mind?

DO NOT SURRENDER CONTROL.

Eighteen-year-old Sil Sarrah is determined to die a legend. But with only twelve months left before the supercomputer grafted to her brain kills her, Sil's time is quickly running out.

In the ten years she's been rescuing field agents for the Syntex corporation - by commandeering their minds from afar and leading them to safety - Sil hasn't lost a single life. And she's not about to start now.

But when a critical mission goes south, Sil is forced to flee the very company she once called home.

Desperate to prove she's no traitor, Sil infiltrates the Analog Army, an activist faction working to bring Syntex down. Her plan: to win back her employer's trust by destroying the group from within. Instead, she and the Army's reckless leader, Ryder, uncover a horrifying truth that threatens to undo all the good she's ever done.

With her tech rapidly degrading and her new ally keeping dangerous secrets of his own, Sil must find a way to stop Syntex in order to save her friends, her reputation - and maybe even herself.

Goodreads review by Kate on June 18, 2022

So—obviously—my opinion of this book is biased, but I think it’s pretty great! It’s basically a Marvel movie re-imagined as a YA novel with a fast-talking heroine, enemies-to-lovers romance, and a whole bunch of wickedly cool tech. I had an absolute blast writing it and (hopefully!) it’s just as much......more

Goodreads review by Jesse on September 04, 2021

I'm not usually a fan of scifi, so I was a bit meh about reading a scifi book at first...but OH MY GOD. MINDWALKER grabbed me by my EYEBALLS and then INJECTED ADRENALINE INTO THEM AND IT WAS AWESOME.

Goodreads review by Fanna on September 14, 2022

not to sound like a genre puritanical but i've been searching for a typical ya sci-fi for a while now—it seems like quite a few are nowadays mixed with fantasy for a broader sff umbrella, but i digress—and this debut fully delivers. from the futuristic technology and a corporate government to a brew......more

Goodreads review by Nia on July 28, 2022

Started out good, but got more tedious and less enjoyable as it went on. I had to force myself to finish it. Mindwalker has everything you would expect in a dystopian cyberpunk book: evil corporations, incredible technology, rebellious teenagers, hacking, rainbow hair. There's nothing wrong with that......more
