From School Library Journal
Gr 8 Up—Meet Rex, a 16-year-old programing genius who is determined to find his brother, Teo, no matter what the cost. Rex creates WALKABOUT, a very complicated code that once run will allow him to track down his brother; the only catch is he has to find a quantum computer to run it. Meet Tunde, a 14-year-old self-taught engineering genius who lives in rural Nigeria. It is not until the cruel General Iyabo visits Tunde's village to demand his help in creating a weapon that he realizes that his genius may be the detriment of his family. Meet Painted Wolf, a 16-year-old genius who lives in Shanghai. The infamous teen is one of China's leading microbloggers who takes pride in exposing public officials who take bribes from mob figures. She knows her online presence can never be linked to her true self or her family will be in danger. It is not until the three protagonists learn of a competition called the Game, hosted by one of the biggest names in technology, Kiran Biswas, that they realize their meeting may help to resolve their individual problems. Strong characters who show their bravery throughout, friendships that do not falter, and ethics that do not fail, even when characters are faced with the impossible, are a refreshing change to most teenage novels. VERDICT Readers will be caught up in the brilliance of the three characters and be surprised at the many twists and turns that they must confront. A gripping must-have.—Elizabeth Anne Ragain, Springfield Public Schools, MO

Editorial Reviews
Review
Praise for Genius: The Game:
"Genius is a breakthrough novel for young adults and others who love this mind-expanding genre. Genius is exciting, provocative, fresh, innovative, and smart, smart, smart. Please don't wait until Genius is a cult classic to read it." ― James Patterson, #1 New York Times bestselling author of the Maximum Ride novels
"Strong characters who show their bravery throughout, friendships that do not falter, and ethics that do not fail, even when characters are faced with the impossible, are a refreshing change to most teenage novels. Readers will be caught up in the brilliance of the three characters and be surprised at the many twists and turns that they must confront. A gripping must-have." ―School Library Journal, starred review
"Gout's characters are believable and immensely likable and their friendship serves as a delightful and realistic anchor amid the fast-moving chaos. Science and technology may take center stage in Gout's fictional Game, but it's the less flashy craft of writing that sells the story." ―The New York Times Book Review
"A fast-moving story that presents its protagonists with intriguing moral choices" ―Publishers Weekly
