In the near future, a New World Order chooses prisons over schools as radical. right- wing talk show host, Buck Rimfire further inflates the hysteria with his daily diatribe against all those who oppose his views. But what secret does he share with his arch-political rival, the equally vitriolic Black ultra-separatist Sister Double Melanin? To escape the hostility and an uncertain future, young Malcolm and Zoe forge an actual friendship in a virtual land called "Cyberia", fighting evil and oppression as Somar, the Enchanter and pyro-warrior Karmakazia. In a twist of fate, they are brought face-to-face in the real world with a surprising and near-tragic outcome.
