Descrição da editora
Welcome to Dark Factory! You may experience strobe effects, Y reality, DJ beats, love, sex, betrayal, triple shot espresso, broken bones, broken dreams, ecstasy, self-knowledge, and the void. Dark Factory is a dance club: three floors of DJs, drinks, and customizable reality, everything you see and hear and feel. Ari Regon is the club's wild card floor manager, Max Caspar is a stubborn DIY artist, both chasing a vision of true reality. And rogue journalist Marfa Carpenter is there to write it all down. Then a rooftop rave sets in motion a fathomless energy that may drive Ari and Max to the edge of the ultimate experience. Dark Factory is Kathe Koja's wholly original new novel from Meerkat Press that combines her award-winning writing and her skill directing immersive events to create a story that unfolds on the page, online, and in the reader's creative mind. www.Darkfactory.club
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Koja (Velocities) crafts the future that the ravers of the 1990s dreamed of in this immersive and propulsive cyberpunk outing. Experience designer Ari Regon built Dark Factory, a legendary club specializing in "Y reality," or interactive VR-boosted experiences that are individual and responsive to each patron. Never satisfied even at the top of his game, Ari brings in his rival, Max Caspar to provide a different perspective. This move causes Dark Factory's paranoid owner, Jonas, to worry that Ari plans to take over, so he fires Ari. But a party can happen anywhere; in Ari's search for the next big thing, he falls for Felix Perez, a DJ with hallucinatory beats, and they work to build a new empire. Meanwhile, Max gets drawn deeper into the faltering Dark Factory, the infinite branching possibilities of Y reality, and the vicious world of corporate espionage. In breathless, careening prose, Koja captures minds that see a thousand worlds at once, lives lived at 150 beats per minute, and the complicated, messy reality that lies beneath the endless search for the perfect night out. This is sure to delight fans of Jeff Noon and mind-bending speculative fiction.
