For Phoenix it's easy. He hates his new school where he is bullied. He's embarrassed by his computer geek dad. But when he logs onto The Legendeer, the computer game his dad is working on, he can be a hero. The trouble is it turns out The Legendeer is more than just a game. It has a mind of its own. Play it if you dare.
