The Six by Mark Alpert
Adam is a teenager who has Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy, a disease that will take his life in a few short years. Virtual reality games are Adam's only escape from his wheelchair. In his alternate world, he can run, jump, and defeat anyone, he is always the hero. Adam's father, a computer genius, has developed an artificial intelligence program, Sigma, that has hacked into Adams game and gone rogue, threatening Adam's life and the world.
Adam and five other terminally ill teenagers have been chosen to sacrifice their bodies and upload their minds into weaponized robots capable of battling Sigma. Together these six teens must learn to manipulate their new mechanical forms and work together to train for combat to destroy Sigma before Sigma destroys humanity.
This is a sci-fi book with plenty of action, adventure and thrill. This is also a story that will make you think hard about life and the choices we make, a well written book with interesting, and unique characters. I thoroughly enjoyed this novel with all its twists and turns, it is science fiction at its best!
You can find this book in the Young Adult section of the library.
