About the Book
Jin Lee, a game director at Maudit Game Studios in Montreal, Quebec is haunted by the family he never met on his mother's side, trapped in North Korea due to the devastating grip of communism. As he develops the popular multiplayer game "Stars to Destiny," Jin begins to draw parallels between the oppressive tactics of the regime that separated his family and the growing ideological influence permeating his workplace and Canadian society. Torn between his desire to maintain his livelihood and his growing conviction that he must stand up for his beliefs, Jin reaches a breaking point when the studio head launches into an anti-American tirade. Jin's journey represents a broader cultural conflict as he navigates his personal history intertwined with a nation grappling with ideological pressures. Through his struggle to understand his roots while resisting the tightening grip of communism in his workplace, the story explores the courage required to confront oppressive systems and reclaim one's identity amidst mounting ideological pressure. A powerful satirical examination of tribal movements in game studios, Tucker Jones' politically incorrect novel asks poignant questions about identity politics, the origins of gender ideology and the outright failure to investigate treason and foreign interference along with stinging and satirical portrayals of the game industry.
