About this book
The science fiction series that will make you scratch your head, then say “this is awesome!” The year 2067: Obesity becomes the #1 killer of humanity. The only salvation: a virtual RPG called Moderation Online, where patients live in a fantasy kingdom. Vegetable NPCs subconsciously train humans how to make better choices in life. The only problem: a virus that introduces an evil empire of processed foods who undo all of the vegetables’ progress. Kendall Barnes is the newest entrant in this idyllic world. African-American, obese, diabetic, and a survivor of a heart attack, the game is his last chance at a normal life…until he finds himself in the most epic food fight of all time. Food City is the first book in Michael La Ronn’s Moderation Online series, inspired by Final Fantasy and JRPGs. With a fast-paced story, fun characters, and lots of action, Moderation Online is mouthwateringly cool.
