Description
What could be worse than letting billions die?
In the near future, to escape the crush and clutter of a packed and polluted Earth, the world’s elite flock to Atopia, an enormous corporate-owned artificial island in the Pacific Ocean. It is there that Dr. Patricia Killiam rushes to perfect the ultimate in virtual reality: a program to save the ravaged Earth from mankind’s insatiable appetite for natural resources.
The Atopia Chronicles (Book 1 of the Atopia series) is the tale of mankind’s dark slide across the apocalypse as humans and machines merge in a world teetering on the brink of ecological ruin.

“The futurism of William Gibson...dark images of Phillip K. Dick.” —J. Johnson, Amazon Vine Voice
“Will grip you in its wordy talons. If this book doesn’t make you want to bury your smart phone and live amongst the Amish, nothing will.” —Redfern Barrett, SCI-FI Methods Book Review
“Echos of Gibson and Stephenson...the Matrix meets Ready Player One meets Apple Computer...” —Daniel Leithhauser, Amazon Vine Voice
