What is the plot of the book The Last Book in the Universe?

Answer 1

it's about a time way in the future where a 'big shake' destroys everything and the world is filled with pollution. the tech is so advanced that no body reads any more; they use 'mind probes' that transfer images so lifelike into your mind that it seems you're really in the place the mind probe shows.

A boy called Spaz who , like his name says, is allergic to the mind probes. He was adopted into a family that kicked him out when they found out his allergy. One day he is told that his stepsister, who he loved, was fatally sick but as tyrants ruled the land, he was unable to cross the boundaries that separate one place from another. With the help of some companions (an old man, a perfect woman and an orphaned child) he sets off to disobey the rules to find his sister and see her for the last time.

But actually with the help of the woman (fuuuuuucckkkk, otherwise known as a proov, Spaz's sister (Bean) is actually healed in the end. The child (little face) is adopted by the proovs but Spaz and the old man (Ryter) have to return to their homes again. Ryter gets killed and Spaz realises his biological father is Billy, a man who rules the district he lives in.
