Publisher Description

PHILIP K. DICK AWARD FINALIST 2012 ( FOR ORIGINAL PAPERBACK SCIENCE FICTION NOVEL OF THE YEAR) Praised for its political vision, literary voice, and environmental prescience, The Not Yet brings forth a searing vision of the future. Set in the ravaged and abandoned Gulf Coast in 2121, the author describes a world where the wealthy Heirs control  all of society's resources. Through life extension, they can live hundreds of years. Outside, the poor barely survive. Malcolm de Lazarus, twenty, has been lucky --he's counting on joining the elite. But when his fortune mysteriously disappears, he must sail to the chaotic, abandoned New Orleans Islands for answers. On the way, he encounters the darkest side of Heirs' privilege, which threatens everything he knows and loves. SELECTION, SCIENCE FICTION CLUB OF CENTRAL LONDONTIMES PICAYUNE NEW ORLEANS TOP TEN BOOKS, 2012


“The Not Yet should appeal to any reader with an appreciation for the kind of novels Silverberg wrote in the late sixties and early seventies: short, tense, discomfiting and serious-minded. An intelligent and thought-provoking piece of work.”

-- Stephen Theaker ― Interzone, June 1, 2012



“A vivid, suspenseful, and (literally) layered imagining of what's to become of New Orleans and humanity (a new kind of love?) in the Twenty-Second Century.”

-- Roy Blount
