Publisher Description
Ten possible futures. Two lives. One enduring friendship.
Sam and Tara. Best friends in a future when artificial intelligence organises our lives, and micropets are the latest craze. Best friends when rationing means cold showers and no internet. Best friends when genetic matching makes asking a girl on a date a minefield of epic proportions.
But will they still be best friends in a future when plague wipes out most of humanity? Or a future when the Inquisitor asks Sam to choose one betrayal over another?
Michael Pryor, one of Australia's best authors of speculative fiction, imagines what our next 100 years might be like. Utopia or dystopia? Miracle or catastrophe? Whatever might happen, it's just around the corner. Which future will be yours?

Extremely Cliché
I have the tangible version of this Novel, I’m doing a case study for school work on Utopia & Dystopian times. I find this Novel to be extremely Cliché and dry, these topics are those of many I’ve heard about for years! This is basically relaying those memories, this Novel causes boredom - I find throughout, the storyline loses a sense of correspondence and goes of track then it redeems itself. This Novel isn’t one that suits my preferences although, others may like it. I suggest making an Audiobook, it will make it less unbearable then it already is.
