'A fast-paced dystopian thriller' - SFX Magazine
'First-rate science fiction' - Cory Doctorow
'As much a novel of ideas as it is a techno-thriller . . . A more erudite and emotionally engaging Philip K Dick' - Irish Times
In a familiar yet different Europe governed by AI, life is more efficient, objective, and peaceful. Yet all is not as it seems. Meanwhile, at Europe's eastern edge, the Federation endures under the rule of a President who has preserved his power by transferring his consciousness from body to body.
As both worlds begin to crumble, Lilia, a Federation scientist, discovers a way to slip the nets of surveillance and alter the balance of power. On the run, she becomes the reluctant centre of a struggle between resistance and control. Yet the systems and people surrounding her may already be beyond redemption. Is there any way to put humanity's future back in its own hands?

Recenzii
Roll over, George Orwell: This post-apocalyptic dystopia makes Airstrip One look like a summer camp. Nayler's sophomore novel is set in a familiar future world in which totalitarian orders rule, with recognisably Putinesque touches in what's called the (né Russian) Federation, not least an autocratic ruler who's been running the show for decades . . . A richly detailed evocation of a grim future that is, sadly, absolutely believable
Nayler's twisting, turning political thriller has spectacular surprises, grounded by realistic, complex characters who are determined to change their world, however hopeless it may seem. A bold, epic SF story and an inspiring tale about taking down all forms of authoritarianism
Already a Hugo and Locus award winner, Nayler's third offering is as much a novel of ideas as it is a techno-thriller, and fully delivers on both counts. A more erudite and emotionally engaging Philip K Dick, Nayler thrives on technology's potential, but roots his story very firmly in human fragilities.
An intense, claustrophobic novel . . . A work of first-rate science fiction
This thought-provoking, fast-moving thriller is also a heartfelt call for resistance to oppressive regimes
Ray Nayler follows up two excellent ecological SF novels with this fast-paced dystopian thriller
There's a lot to chew on here . . . [And it's] worth the effort
A book that warns and makes you think . . . It has things to say and does so extremely well . . . One of my best reads of 2025
