Jelmer Soes - Restart

Restart is a novel by Jelmer Soes that follows Jonas, a young man who falls into the trap of the virtual world. He skips college more and more often, sees his friends less, and lives increasingly under the spell of gaming, until he reaches the point where he recognises that he has to change, just one step away from cutting off the way back into his own life.

The book asks uncomfortable questions: have you ever felt pulled in by a game? Did you ever take the warnings seriously? How far do you have to drift from reality before you say enough, and is it ever too late? Through this story, the reader is drawn into the dangers of gaming addiction.

The 256-page book comes in a card-covered binding. It is a gripping read for anyone interested in how virtual worlds affect everyday life.
