For The Win by Cory Doctorow
In a near-future where online games power a shadow economy, a diverse group of teen gamers and virtual laborers fight back against exploitative gold-farming operations by organizing a global union that spans servers and countries. As corporations, criminal syndicates, and authorities retaliate, they confront perilous real-world consequences, grapple with the economics of virtual currencies, and learn how solidarity can transform both digital worlds and their own futures.
