Description
Five books. One complete set. And a video game that doesn’t want to let you go.
Trapped in a Video Game: The Complete Series collects all five books in Dustin Brady’s bestselling action-adventure series—packed with humor, nonstop twists, and short chapters that keep kids reading “just one more.”
Getting sucked into a video game sounds awesome (jetpacks! hover tanks! infinite lives!)… until the game starts turning on you. In this series, 12-year-old Jesse Rigsby and his best friend Eric discover just how dangerous video games—and the people making them—can be.
This set includes all five adventures:
- Book One: Trapped in a Video Game — Jesse and Eric enter Full Blast and realize someone (or something) inside the game is hunting Jesse
- Book Two: The Invisible Invasion — A monster-filled mobile game leads to a risky mission and a shady company with secrets
- Book Three: Robots Revolt — Video game robots escape into the real world, where there are no extra lives
- Book Four: Return to Doom Island — A retro survival run with drones, androids, and an eight-bit shark
- Book Five: The Final Boss — A 10-minute countdown to save the world from an all-powerful villain’s plan
Who it’s for:
- Kids who love video games—and parents looking for books that match that passion
- Reluctant readers who need a funny, fast-moving series with manageable chapters
- Families who want an addictive read-aloud for ages 8–10 (and many readers beyond, depending on level)
What makes it different:
- Action and comedy on every page—without leaning into heavy, dark themes
- A “More to Explore” section in each book with kid-friendly programming concepts (like binary code and algorithms)
Outcomes readers and parents mention:
- Kids stay engaged, keep turning pages, and build reading confidence
- A go-to series for bedtime reading, classroom libraries, and “screen break” moments
If you’re shopping for a can’t-miss gift for a young gamer—or a set that finally gets a kid excited about reading—grab Trapped in a Video Game: The Complete Series and jump in from Book One.
