*Books may be missing bundle media (e.g. CD, e-book code), if included.

Books in Well Read Condition

This is a well-read book, which means that the previous owner probably really enjoyed it!

Description

Hace unas décadas, Japón ganó la Segunda Guerra Mundial. Los estadounidenses adoran a su infalible emperador y nadie cree que la conducta de Japón en la contienda no fuera ejemplar. Nadie excepto los George Washingtons, una facción proestadounidense que intenta recuperar la gloria de los viejos Estados Unidos. Su última táctica subversiva es distribuir un videojuego ilegal que pide a los jugadores que imaginen cómo sería el mundo si Estados Unidos hubiera ganado la guerra.El capitán Beniko Ishimura, censor de videojuegos, se dedica a captar posibles traidores, cuando un día recibe una misteriosa llamada del general Mutsuraga, al que sirvió hace muchos años, y su vida se convierte en una montaña rusa que le llevará a conocer a Akiko Tsukino, una oficial de la policía de Tokio que intenta descubrir la relación de Ishimura con el videojuego United States of America, que algunos insurgentes están usando para avivar el nacionalismo estadounidense. Los orígenes del videojuego subversivo son aún más polémicos y peligrosos de los que nadie sospecha.Peter Tieryas trabaja como director técnico de personajes en Sony Pictures Imageworks y ha sido escritor y artista técnico en Lucasarts, para películas como Men in Black 3 y Guardianes de la Galaxia y videojuegos como Scape from Monkey Island y Star Wars: Bounty Hunter. Sus dos novelas anteriores, Watering Heaven (2012) y Bald New World (2014), no están publicadas en español.
