The Space Gambler

By Youssef Bortali

In a future when virtual reality replaces reality itself, and gambling on all events is the favorite pastime, Gio is a product of his environment. TelePortal technician by day, speculative trader by night, his only desire is to save enough money to upgrade his MaskProjector and build his dream VR.

When Gio finally hits the jackpot and realizes his wishes, he inadvertently opens a Pandora's box of bizarre events and eccentric characters: reality mixes with illusion, sentient robots and colonized extraterrestrials partner together to punish a powerful oligarch, and the quantum fabric of the universe is at stake.

Gio is the unlikely and unwilling hero destined to save the world in a journey that involves ascension to godhood, loss of loved ones, and a deep understanding of the quantum theories at the basis of reality itself.
