Twelve-year-old Ben Montana had a different life on the internet. He could say and do whatever the heck he wanted. No consequences. No concerns. It was a great, and wonderful, and...perfectly miserable.
When the internet crashes, dramatic events force Ben into an adventure of real-world survival. In the end, Ben confront what it truly means to be connected, and what it means to live.
Disconnected: The Broken Path is a stimulating adventure sure to entertain. Full of humor and poignant life-lessons, it is the perfect book for young adults and beyond. In a world absorbed by the internet, Disconnected: The Broken Path shows the path forward to rebuilding life – life in the real world.

"I have a new favorite author" - Reader Review
* * *
Maybe the worst part of a fight is when nobody comes to break it up. The school supervisor stood by the swing set staring at a phone, and the other students were loving the fight too much to call for help. So, on and on Ben and Jaxon tussled. Both wanted to stop, though they could never admit it.
“Ugh… You need to impress Sophie, hey?” said Jaxon, barely missing with a right uppercut.
Sophie Martine blushed a vibrant, beautiful pink as she stood near the brawl.
“I’ll bet she’d love to see you hurt,” said Ben as he threw his elbow into Jaxon’s face.
And so the fight, and all its glorious pain, continued.
Somehow the supervisor did look up from her phone, and the fight did end. Ben and Jaxon found themselves sitting outside of the vice principal’s office. It was time for The Wait. The awful, nervous, tiresome wait. By this point both boys were choking back tears and thinking about how they would smooth-talk this incident with their parents—or parent, in Jaxon’s case. Not a word was said between them. They were too tired to be angry now.
Eventually the vice principal, a cold and distant lady secretly known as Mrs. Dog by the students—short for Dogwood—called them in and demanded details. Both boys, in a pathetic quiver of emotion, blamed one another, but stopped short of stating the real reason for the fight. That would involve another world; another dimension of reality, or unreality. Best to keep it simple and follow The Code.
“So,” barked the vice principal after hearing that Ben had tried to gouge Jaxon’s face with his elbow. “So…”
What would she say, this educated, professional, and feared leader of the school? What profound words of truth and terror would follow?
“So…was that a good choice or a bad choice?” came the anticipated words of wisdom.
Ben stared back in disbelief. It was all a dream world. He had just tried to annihilate another human being, and then he was asked if it was a good choice or a bad choice? He was tempted to claim it as a good choice. Her reaction might be worth it.
“Um, a bad choice.” The Code must be followed.
The same mindless question was asked to Jaxon, who did in fact make an error.
“It was a bad choice…but…”
“No ‘buts’ from you, little boy,” snapped Mrs. Dog, glaring at Jaxon. “You need to make good choices and not bad choices.” She twisted her face towards Ben. “Both of you!”

Descripción de la tienda
**Please note our transit times are from the date of dispatch.** We first started out as “The Paperback Exchange,” a chain of physical bookstores where we would part exchange your beloved books for new stories to transport you to faraway places. However, as shopping started to evolve to online shops and marketplaces, we bid our stores goodbye to become “PBShop.” This transition has only allowed us to blossom as we now ship thousands of titles to book lovers across the globe. We pride ourselves in being a community of local book lovers which allows our passion and devotion to shine in everything we do. In 2020 we not only celebrated our 20th birthday but our 1st birthday as being completely employee owned after becoming an E.O.T in September 2019. We are proud to be different and embrace standing apart on a book mountain by working from a virtual inventory which allows us to provide thousands of books that may be difficult to get for your bookshelf or your studies. Working with a number of different suppliers allows us to explore other avenues such as puzzles, sheet music and even stationery so we really do have something for everyone. Life is about being versatile in all realms of existence. If this is your first purchase with us, or you are a returning customer, we would like to welcome you to the PBShop family, for there is no friend as loyal as a book. We are a company who put our customers at the centre of everything we do as we understand the importance of reading because once you learn to read, you will forever be free. There are a whole lot of things in this world of ours that we are yet to explore, which is why we will forever inspire curious minds.…
