The future has amazing technology. Our alien allies have magic. Together, we are building a training system to teach the best of humanity to go to the stars. But the training is monumentally expensive. Stephanie Morgana is a genius, she just doesn't know it. The artificial intelligence that runs the virtual world is charged with testing Stephanie, a task it has never performed before. Will Stephanie pass the test and be moved to the advanced preparatory schools, or will the system miss her? Will the AI be able to judge a human's potential in an area where it has no existing test data to compare?

Highly recommended
This was a really enjoyable book, it's filled with loads of really likeable characters, witchcraft, future technology and fantastic adventure. I've listened to hundreds of audiobooks and few achieve the perfect combination of a really great story and the best narration to match it. I highly recommend this audiobook.
Lastly, a special note on the narrator.
I must hand it to the narrator, rarely is any narrator able to create so many individual accents and personalities as well as Jesse Vilinsky has, it's a real achievement and I will definitely be checking out her other audiobooks.

Would have been better set in an alternate world
Hundreds of years from now, the trend of people who didn't grow up in the 80's being obsessed with it, will continue. Honestly a lot of this book has potential but I just couldn't make it through since so much time was wasted talking about modern pop culture as if nothing had been created in the subsequent years. And I mean a lot of time, I kept waiting for the story to get moving but it just seemed to be treading water making the constant talk of 80's and modern pop culture seem obtrusive in the face of what should have been time spent world building and story development.
I also found the sci-fi to be really inconsistent, with spaceships, high level AI and fully realized VR alongside discussion of modern day tech that just doesn't fit alongside such things like ipads and self-driving cars.
There was a lot of potential, narration is excellent and the main heroine likeable and without the aforementioned flaws the world building was interesting as well. Unfortunately the flaws along with the slow pace simply made it impossible for me to fully engage with the story and prevented any chance of immersion,
