An Indigenous teen girl navigates the complexities of two worlds, both real and virtual, in this YA fantasy debut by bestselling Indigenous author Wab Kinew. Bugz is a shy, self-conscious Indigenous girl dealing with the challenges of life on the Rez, while in the virtual realm, her alter ego is a confident force in a massively multiplayer video game. Feng, a teen boy from China, arrives to live with his aunt on the Rez after concerns about his online activities. When Bugz and Feng meet in both realities, they bond over their shared experiences as outsiders and gaming enthusiasts. Their connection deepens through virtual adventures, revealing common struggles with family issues and community trauma. However, betrayal threatens Bugz’s achievements in the virtual world and her real-life relationships. To mend her friendship with Feng and reconcile her dual existence, she must harness her newfound strength and navigate the tensions between tradition and modernity, as well as the contrasts of her cultural background and the digital landscape.
