This book is a journey. The point of this book is to go on that journey, and it doesn't matter where you end up (spoiler alert, you end up in a very nice and warm place), but you get to see two worlds, and sometimes you're not sure which one of them is real. And this book feels like real life, with so many details.
Many of us are familiar with the virtual reality, whether those are video games or online multiplayer RPGs, and Zenophobic feels real whenever Click enters it, as if it was just another life of his, or maybe a dream life.
But he has a real life too, and sometimes it seems even more surreal than Zenophobic. But even though he is very involved in this virtual reality, his real life is still rich and full of surprises
-.-
I didn't know what to think of Zenophobic when I read the blurb. I really got this book for my nephew that's gay, but I ended up reading it first and it was really great. I didn't expect to get sucked into it like I was. My nephew is finishing it right now and I can't wait for him to get done, so we can discuss it! All I can really say about Zenophobic is that it was awesome and had me turning pages at lightning speed. I'd really love to read more by this author. 5 Stars!
-.-
The book cover drew me in immediately and I would have bought it simply to have the cover in my possession as I think it is very cool.
I found out the author is multi -talented as not only did he write this book but also did the cover.
In this debut novel by author Shaun Delage, we find out that maybe in many ways life does mirror the futuristic online virtual world “Zenophobic” that our main character so enjoys.
Click was a well thought out character and the attention to even the smallest details by the author brought this story together quite well. The other characters were also well created which resulted in great character interaction throughout.
This is truly a cool read and I like the way the author’s brain works.
Could online reality games such as this be the wave of the future? Check this book out and see what you think.

I really commend Delage for creating characters that have such depth. The novel is layered, beautifully written, has an incredible setting, contains rich prose, has emotionally charged characters, and explores deep relationships. I'm not sure too many writers could pull this off. By far, this will be a novel I'll be thinking about for a long time. It’s revealing and eye opening, painful and heartbreaking and swoony! WOW!
Zenophobic by Shaun Delage was just a beautiful read! There wasn’t anything about this book that I didn’t enjoy, and the way the writer weaves real life and a virtual world really engages you and sucks you in! Anytime a writer can make you feel things and stir emotions inside of you, you know they are talented, and that is exactly what Shaun Delage did in this beautifully written masterpiece! I could not put this book down as I helplessly fell in love with the characters and the story! If you want something deep and wonderful to escape to, then I highly recommend this book! You’re going to love it!
