Dark Times. Book 3

Ekaterina Borovikova is a versatile Belarusian science-fiction writer. She gained popularity thanks to her mystical novel series "Vyrai".

The "Dark Times" trilogy was written in the LITRPG setting as part of the author’s participation in the literary contest "New Frontier," where she became one of the prize-winners. We present, in audio format, the third and final book of this cycle.

The daughter of the main heroine lands in trouble and is sentenced to a term in a virtual prison. To make her stay there easier, her caring mother decides—at any cost—to earn money for an expensive medical capsule. To achieve this, she herself registers in the virtual game "Dark Times," while her family helps her assemble game clips to promote her own channel.

But it turns out the heroine has a bad genetic inheritance: her parents were stripped of their parental rights because of the gaming addiction that ruined them. In the end, the game draws her in more and more strongly, and often it becomes increasingly difficult to tell where the virtual world ends and reality begins. It all culminates in medical help—and a clinic for people with mental disorders.

In the third and final book, the heroine is back in the game again. But this time, the line between the game and reality blurs completely.

Ultimately, suspicions arise that a neural network is controlling everyone in the game, and the heroine begins to doubt even her own existence as a separate person—and the fact that her past is real. Discover the ending of the story in an audiobook.
