À propos de cet ebook
A collection of five time-spanning, interconnected novellas that weave a web stretching out from the present into the future, presenting eerily plausible possibilities as our world collides with a mysterious alternate universe.
“Those of us who’ve been waiting for the next Cloud Atlas have finally found it.”—Tommy Wallach, author of We All Looked Up
“Fans of adventurous, challenging fiction from the likes of A.S. King, David Mitchell, and Marcus Sedgwick should find this an exciting ride.”—Publishers Weekly
Five teens. Five futures. Two worlds. One ending.
One year from now, Dylan develops a sixth sense that allows him to glimpse another world.
Ten years from now, Brixney must get more hits on her social media feed or risk being stuck in a debtors’ colony.
Thirty years from now, Epony scrubs her online profile and goes “High-Concept.”
Sixty years from now, Reef struggles to survive in a city turned virtual gameboard.
And more than one hundred years from now, Quinn uncovers the alarming secret that links them.
Five people, divided by time, determine the fate of us all. These are brilliantly connected stories of one world bent on destroying itself and an alternate world that just might be its savior—unless it’s too late. In the future, who will you choose to be? And how will you find yourself before the end?
