Equal parts speculative fiction and cautionary tale, readers who were blown away by Tad Williams’ Otherland saga back in the ‘90’s will want to read these Paper War novels asap.

"—Paul Goat Allen, BlueInk Review★★★★★“A highly engaging and immersive dystopian work filled with suspense and technological intrigue, exploring the consequences of battling an AI threat in both the physical and virtual realms. A character-driven story at its core, it’s the emotional toll of the fight for survival that truly had me gripped, with some very powerful tests of character that the main cast undergoes in descriptive detail that tugs at the heartstrings.

"—K. C.

Finn, Readers' Favorite★★★★★“Bonds will be tested and loyalties exposed as a few brave individuals risk everything to create humanity’s last bastion against the machinations of a machine hellbent on the subjugation of the human race. Virtual War revolves around an intricate plot by the humans to take the initiative in their ongoing battle with a devious artificial intelligence program.

The way that LeKodak presents antivirus software with creatures is incredibly inventive and will catch the reader's attention. Reminiscent of Tron, The Matrix, and Insidious, Virtual War is a singularly mind-blowing literary experience.

"—Essien Asian, Readers' Favorite★★★★★“LeKodak incorporates genre-bending non-human capabilities in the human characters operating in the virtual realm, and there are even nods toward the metaphysical, which is a fascinating construct and one that requires the courage of a skilled writer. Exceptional.

"—Asher Syed, Readers' Favorite★★★★★“Virtual War is, at its core, a high-tech thriller that drips with fabulous nuts and bolts, and pits the protagonists and their human mistrust and vulnerabilities against the ultimate game of divide and conquer. The action balances the tech and the endgame flirts with the series continuity, and I'll keep reading for as long as LeKodak keeps writing.

"—Jamie Michele, Readers' Favorite★★★★★“As one reads this thought-provoking work, one can't help but wonder about the use of AI, especially with the recent advances in the field, what ethics should be considered, and how can it be used for the good of humanity without causing any harm to society.
