This fictional novel has a futuristic setting and a mystery that is written at an exceptional level. It follows the story of Rickey as he attempts to survive in a world with few job opportunities and a dilemma that can change the fate of the world. Congrats on the BOTD!

It would be interesting to read a fiction book so heavily influenced by politics. I’ll have to add it to my TBR pile. Thanks for the review.

I love books about the future because they give a glimpse of the future. But I wouldn't like to be replaced by robots in the future at my work place. The flag been banned is unexpected. Great review, thank you.

I wonder how the author portrayed the world of 2050. The technologies, inventions, rules, and even human behaviors at that period. It would be a fascinating read.
It is not easy knowing you are used for a scheme, that when it destroys the world you would realize you have also indirectly had a hand in the disaster.

Latest Review: Between Good and Hollywood by Tyler Patrick Wood

Post by Kirsi Cultrera »

I tend to be more fond of historical fiction than futuristic fiction and this book would most likely cause me some anxiety. Anyway, it seems like a well-crafted story and I am curious about how Rickey will deal with his new situation; can he get rid of the job that turns out to be something totally different than he expected? Does he have to sacrifice his innocence? Is his dear life in danger?

Thank you for the intriguing review!

This is a futuristic political novel filled with mystery. Follow the life of Ricky Montey, who is trying to survive a world run by a few corporations and technology. He gets cornered into working for a wealthy man with sinister plans for the future. Can Ricky save himself or the country he lives in? Excellent book review!

I've witnessed a lot of technological advancements in my lifetime, so I have to question the veracity of publications like these. The topic of what technology might look like in the future is interesting.

Reading about a world where computers are a cult and saying a single word against technology is considered a hate speech sounds very compelling. It will be interesting to find out more about the true purpose of Rickey's trips to different places and his documenting of everything he saw. Congratulations on becoming BOTD!

Today's BOTD is a political scifi thriller set in 2050. Besides a few wealthy corporate giants, technology now rules the world and has taken over the jobs and responsibilities once meant for humans. Readers who enjoy thought-provoking reads full of mystery, action, and suspense are going to thoroughly enjoy following 23yo Rickey as he tries to save the country before it's too late. Thank you so much! Great review!! :-)

The book sounds interesting. A young man caught up in an evil trap makes an interesting read. I also liked the review which encourages me to want to read this book.

How does the author envision the world in 2050? I'm wondering. How the author views the application of technology and how human life develops in this future. Congratulations to BOTD's author!
