The New World

January 5, 2015 by Drew

The Short Version: Jane returns from a conference to find that her husband Jim has had his head cryogenically frozen.  A winding tale, skipping through time and space, follows the both of them and what their new worlds will be like… The Review: On the one hand, it’s a damn shame Atavist Books is closing up shop so quickly.  Twice Upon a Time was one of the coolest experiences I’ve had with a book and I believe there’s a place in this […]

The Short Version: Sometime into the future, insomnia has gone from being an occasional annoyance to being a full-blown medical disorder.  People simply begin to lose the ability to go to sleep.  A service develops called the SlumberCorps, where healthy sleepers can donate their sleep just like you might donate blood – but even that can only make a dent in the problem.  And then, a baby arrives who is miraculously a universal donor… The Review: We’ve all had those […]
