Uncover the Truth Behind the Dream

When 17-year-old Lexi Carvalho is abruptly taken from her small-town existence, she awakens to a startling reality: Earth was destroyed centuries ago, and her previous life was merely a simulated reality. As one of 700,000 ""Iron Dreamers,"" Lexi's mission is to address the immense challenges that humanity faces aboard a vast space station. Recruited by the enigmatic Artemis to apprehend a saboteur threatening humanity's remnants, Lexi confronts her deepest fears and questions the nature of her existence in this dystopian science fiction tale.

Entrapped in a simulation. Selected for a perilous mission. As Lexi's world unravels, she navigates a crumbling reality where illusions and truth intertwine.

Each step brings her closer to a revelation that could either rescue humanity or lead to its demise. This young adult dystopian novel is ideal for fans seeking YA sci-fi books about simulated realities and narratives featuring strong female leads in sci-fi.

The fate of humanity hinges on a perilous secret. Artemis offers Lexi a chance for answers-but at a significant cost. In a world where reality is fabricated, whom can she trust?
