Game Theory XonOIL by Michael Nemeth

The Game theory unfolds as two adventures are revealed simultaneously about an environmentalist and her grandfather, a Washington economist. Together they endure the collapse of society as manmade and natural catastrophes are unleashed. This story evolves as their choices and lives begin influencing events in the future that impact, not only survival but recovery. Less that 100 years after man has walked on the surface of the moon, the planet is now a wasteland of hopelessness where Mary’s grandson mostly confined in doors, discovers escape by playing old 21st century video games. Charlie is joined by network of other underground pirate Gamers that hack into the forbidden exclusive security access controlled remnant of the www. In these fantasy worlds he dominates as the top player defeating any game and all challengers. However, once their illegal congregation is discovered, he is forced from his virtual existence, to dealing with reality the only way he knows how. Charlie with his morphed feline features (a souvenir from the corporate vaccinations) ventures out as he begins his challenges to emerge, as the winner in this new Game.
