Overview
"I Am A Good Reader" follows Park Beekman, a middle manager at The Lower Manhattan Sign Company. He is about to become the newest member of the resistance; he just doesn't know it yet. In fact, he doesn't know much of anything, other than what he reads—and he's not alone in that. Park is one of the millions of people with eye implants that control their thoughts and actions through the words they read. He doesn't know that either, but Lane does, and she's out of options. As one of the leaders of the resistance, Lane has decided to strike the upcoming government rally without buy-in from her superiors, believing that it's now or never. She'll capture Park Beekman, destroy his implants, and send him back to work at the sign company. There, he'll have to execute a mission of sabotage, becoming a key player in the resistance's attempt to put an end to the nightmare of people believing everything they read. This is a story of daring, liberation, and a race against the clock as the nefarious Max Nius is brewing a plan of his own. Join Park and Lane as they stir the resistance while avoiding the possibility of being discovered. Pretending to still have implants, taking the company down from the inside proves to be far more difficult than Park could've ever imagined. With time running out, Max sees conspiracies everywhere, and Lane must take plans into her own hands. The climatic rally is imminent, and a deadly trap has been set in motion. Will Park and Lane get the resistance running before it can ever get off the ground? Find out in "I Am A Good Reader" and experience the revolution for yourself.

There, he'll have to execute a mission of sabotage, becoming a key player in the resistance's attempt to put an end to the nightmare of people believing everything they read. Park must avoid being discovered and pretending to have implants proves far more difficult than he could have imagined, especially when he comes face-to-face with the president of the company, Max Nius. Max couldn't care less about signs or the people he has working for him. All he wants is a promotion out of his dead-end job, to a spot in The Boardroom—the upper echelon of the government. Max sees conspiracies against him everywhere, and eventually sets his sights on Park. With time running out, Lane has been abandoned by her superiors, but it's too late to stop the plan she's set in motion. The rally is imminent, and Park is about to be exposed, because Max has set his own plan into motion: a deadly trap he hopes will frame his enemies and end the resistance before it ever gets off the ground. This is a story of daring, liberation, and a race against the clock. Join Park and Lane as they stir the resistance while avoiding the possibility of being discovered. With time running out, Max sees conspiracies everywhere, and Lane must take plans into her own hands. Will Park and Lane get the resistance running before it can ever get off the ground?
