Die Onlivik-Sporen sind besiegt und der Dungeon wurde gezähmt, aber der Preis dafür war hoch. John und seine Freunde sind von den Verlusten geschockt, aber der Countdown zur vollen Aufnahme ins System läuft weiter. Aufgrund der Drohungen durch ins System integrierte Rassen und neue, stärkere Monster muss John sich etwas einfallen lassen, damit er und die Stadt überleben können.

Vor vier Monaten veränderte sich die Welt. Elektronische Geräte fielen aus und blaue Bildschirme erschienen, die den Menschen Fähigkeiten, Klassen und Skills verliehen - wie in einem Computerspiel. John, den diese Apokalypse im Klondike National Park erwischt, schafft es, sich aus dem Nationalpark herauszukämpfen und Whitehorse zu erreichen.

John wollte lediglich im Kluane National Park am Wochenende ausspannen. Wandern, zelten, ausruhen. Stattdessen endet die Welt in einer Reihe blauer Textfelder. Tiere verändern sich, Monster erscheinen, und er erhält Charakterwerte und irre Fertigkeiten. Jetzt muss er die Apokalypse überleben und in die Zivilisation zurückkehren, ohne dabei durchzudrehen. Das System ist da – und damit auch Aliens, Monster und eine Realität, die sowohl an alte Legenden als auch an Videospiele erinnert.

I am...That’s no longer an easy statement. Who am I?

In 26 years I’ve lived three lives - been three different people. Renee. Kennedy. And now, Araneae. They say that I was named after the spider to make me resilient. Sparrow would then be a bird. Birds eat spiders. I prefer to consider myself a cat.

Coyote America is both an environmental and a deep natural history of the coyote. It traces both the five-million-year-long biological story of an animal that has become the "wolf" in our backyards and its cultural evolution from a preeminent spot in Native American religions to the hapless foil of the Road Runner. A deeply American tale, the story of the coyote in the American West and beyond is a sort of Manifest Destiny in reverse.
