À propos de cet audio
An Indigenous teen girl is caught between two worlds, both real and virtual, in the YA fantasy debut from bestselling Indigenous author Wab Kinew. Perfect for fans of Ready Player One and the Otherworld series.
In the real world, Bugz is a shy and self-conscious Indigenous teen who faces the stresses of teenage angst and life on the Rez. But in the virtual world, her alter ego is not just confident but dominant in a massively multiplayer video game universe.
Feng is a teen boy who has been sent from China to live with his aunt, a doctor on the Rez, after his online activity suggests he may be developing extremist sympathies. Meeting each other in real life, as well as in the virtual world, Bugz and Feng immediately relate to each other as outsiders and as avid gamers. And as their connection is strengthened through their virtual adventures, they find that they have much in common in the real world, too: both must decide what to do in the face of temptations and pitfalls, and both must grapple with the impacts of family challenges and community trauma.
But betrayal threatens everything Bugz has built in the virtual world, as well as her relationships in the real world, and it will take all her newfound strength to restore her friendship with Feng and reconcile the parallel aspects of her life: the traditional and the mainstream, the east and the west, the real and the virtual.

"With dizzying action set in virtual reality, Walking in Two Worlds is at once exhilarating, clever, and poignant, seamlessly blending traditional knowledge with science fiction for an important entry into the genre of Indigenous Futurism. It doesn't just walk in two worlds, it sprints." (David A. Robertson, award-winning author of the bestselling The Barren Grounds)
"Walking in Two Worlds is overall a powerful reading experience, thought-provoking, and emotional by turns." (Quill & Quire)

This should be a movie
This would make a great movie with current technology and trends that have been taking place. As Reminiscent of the other stories it is compared to in the discription, it has its own style and culture that brings everything to life so vividly.

may have gotten me into "fiction"
I love everything about this listen. It was modern and yet brought such traditional teaching within the story. showed aspects of self acceptance, and the view of colonialism and falling for someone who's a settler

Captivating listen. Well worth a listen!!
Highly recommend. A captivating listen,an intriguing transition from the authors first book,an obvious autobiography,this I found as a full 360 degree shift of a character Bugz and her life and times in another world known as the Floraverse. Came away from this book and quickly searched and bought Book 2 The Everlasting Road by Wab Kinew one very talented author.
