Dead Headz

It's 5 years since the Powers, an extremist youth-led political party, won the election to govern the First World. The majority of the populace are now hopelessly addicted to the regime's bots that control every aspect of their lives, from basic actions to all thinking. Rumours emerging that this utopian way of life is causing addicts to show signs of brain failure are being strenuously denied.

A vocal opponent of the Powers, Kent Sanderson, is determined to swim against the tide of surrendering to machinery and keep engaging his brain no matter what, even if it means risking Removal. A reluctant hero, Sanderson finds himself leading the fight against the Powers and their automation as they take increasingly extreme actions to tighten their vice-like grip on the nation and its people.
