Michael is a gamer and hacker who plays on a virtual reality system (the VirtNet). The VNS (VirtNet Security) ask Michael and his friends Bryson and Sarah to help them find a notorious gamer/hacker named Kaine. As they talk it over Kaine grabs them and threatens to kill them if they do not give up trying to find him. They decide to not help VNS after Kaine's threat. VNS takes their VirtNet access away until they help decide to help the VNS again. Then they talk to a tangent (computer generated person) who seems to know everything. They learn they must follow the path to get to Kaine but it will be very difficult. They go through several difficult situations to locate the beginning of the path. Once on the path the real trouble and dangers begin. The path tests them to their limits and only one makes it end, which is really just a new discovery to a new beginning.

The Eye of Minds is in a third person point of view.
Example: Michael had always thought hacking into a simulated location in the VirtNet was much like breaking into a building in the wake.

My inference is VNS is not actually trying to help Michael.
I Inferred that the VNS was not on Michael's side but using Michael because when Michael holds his word they do nothing to help him escape.

My inference for Michael is that he will not do as he's told to do by Kaine and Agent Weber and act as the"human he has replaced". At the end of the story when he realizes he is the first subject to implement the Mortality Doctrine he is angry with Kaine. Also throughout the book he doesn't do what people expect him to do.

My opinion is that Michael doesn't like Kaine because he is trying to foil Kaine's plans.

This sentence is an example of a personification:
"There was a Tiger walking on its hind legs, holding a pitcher of somethings with its front paws."

This sentence is an example of a simile :
" There was a great rushing noise, like massive waves on the ocean, and the smell of burning plastic."

Cause: Michael and his friends didn't want to help VNS.
Effect: VNS denied access to the VirtNet to Michael and his friends until they agree to help the VNS find Kaine.
