Mortality Doctrine Synopsis: The Eye of Minds is the first book in the Mortality Doctrine trilogy by James Dashner. Michael is a gamer who spends more of his time on VirtNet than in the real world. What VirtNet does is offers complete and total mind and body immersion – something that’s very addictive. Technology has advanced so that anyone with enough money can experience something beyond the real world, risking their life without a chance of dying. Or, if they’re not in the mood for that, they can simply hang out with Virt-friends. Those who are adept at hacking can have even more fun. Why follow any rules when they’re lame to begin with? But rules are in place for a purpose. Technology can be dangerous. One player is even holding others hostage inside VirtNet, causing them to become braindead. But his motives are unknown. In order the catch a hacker, the government knows you need a hacker on your side. They’ve been watching Michael. To help them, Michael will have to go off the VirtNet grid. There are back alleys and corners in the system human eyes have never seen and predators he can’t even fathom — and there’s the possibility that the line between game and reality will be blurred forever.
