She meets Rae, a robot who says Izzy is destined to save Dungeon City from the Big Boss. How is this possible?! And how can she fight for this virtual world when she's got a whole <i>real</i> life to keep up with: her family (though she could do without her mom's annoying cat), and her best friend, Eric. Things get even weirder when Izzy loses a life while inside the game, and she starts to worry about what might happen if she gets a Game Over for good. Meanwhile, Eric has been super upset with Izzy since she's been keeping secrets and bailing on their plans. Can Izzy survive Dungeon City <i>and</i> save their friendship? <p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br> <b>Praise for <i>Glitch</i>: </b><b>Sarah Graley is a formidable talent.
