Marketed as a sanctuary for troubled teens Kringletown feels more like a staged holiday special complete with drones directors and suspiciously perfect nicies who never break character.</span></p><p><span style=background-color: rgba(255 255 255 1); color: rgba(15 17 17 1)>But something else is watching Ryder. Something older than drones and more honest than the smiling kids. A reindeer has begun trailing him through dreams and snow. It moves like a shadow. And it isn't alone.</span></p><p><span style=background-color: rgba(255 255 255 1); color: rgba(15 17 17 1)>As Ryder's every move is broadcast to millions he begins to unravel the truth behind Kringletown's carefully curated image. The Big Game isn't just a brand. It's a plan rooted in ancient Christmas legends and a forgotten bloodline. Ryder isn't just a misfit. He's connected to something primal. Something sacred.</span></p><p><span style=background-color: rgba(255 255 255 1); color: rgba(15 17 17 1)>And the reindeer following him?

Because Billy Sinterklaas doesn't just want to help misfits.</span></p><p><span style=background-color: rgba(255 255 255 1); color: rgba(15 17 17 1)>He wants to remake Christmas.</span></p><p><span style=background-color: rgba(255 255 255 1); color: rgba(15 17 17 1)>Part </span><em style=background-color: rgba(255 255 255 1); color: rgba(15 17 17 1)>The Truman Show</em><span style=background-color: rgba(255 255 255 1); color: rgba(15 17 17 1)> part </span><em style=background-color: rgba(255 255 255 1); color: rgba(15 17 17 1)>The Hunger Games</em><span style=background-color: rgba(255 255 255 1); color: rgba(15 17 17 1)> and part Christmas myth reimagined </span><em style=background-color: rgba(255 255 255 1); color: rgba(15 17 17 1)>Ronin: The Last Reindeer</em><span style=background-color: rgba(255 255 255 1); color: rgba(15 17 17 1)> is a dark and dazzling blend of found family conspiracy and coming-of-age survival.
