Description

Good news: Crime is gone! Bad news: it’s because of mind control. This week, Maggie and Rachel continue the Warcross duology with its sequel, Wildcard. Hideo’s algorithm now controls most of the world population, and Emika is determined to stop him. But with a bounty on her head, she’ll need to find new allies in unlikely places. We’ll talk about the scenes that surprised us the most, the morality of mind control, and what might be our favorite ship of the series (hint: it’s not who you think it is!)
