Accelerati

ACCELERATI: the creme de la creme of the Virtual Reality Remote Racing (VR3) worldwide circuit. Peerless racing ability paired with larger-than-life personalities. Unfortunately, celebrity this extreme is almost always a smokescreen to hide equally extreme secrets. Skeletons in the closet are a prerequisite for the keys to a GravityHawk. KRYS YAZZIE has spent most of her adolescence worshipping the fabled heroes of VR3 from afar, collecting posters, webclips and toys from fast food restaurants. She's also spent a lot of time and money simulating the experience at the local arcade. Nothing could have prepared her for her dreams blurring their way into reality... ACCELERATI is D. Lawson-Hart's third novel and his first sci-fi extravaganza, incorporating elements of auto racing and "future shock," while still maintaining the humanity and strong, realistic characters that he established with his previous two efforts (Wellspring and WellSeen). It was written as his entry for National Novel Writing Month (the book was not quite finished by the end of the thirty days but he had gone well past the 50,000 word mark), and though he started out unsure if it was even a half-decent idea for a novel, the finished product far surpassed his own expectations. Let's hope it does the same for you.
