“Fans of stories centered on the conflict between the virtual and
the real will find plenty to enjoy.” — Publishers Weekly No one
goes out anymore. Society is sheltered indoors. The economy is in
ruins. People spend their lives addicted to a breakthrough virtual
reality technology, desperate for escapism in a troubled world. The
Nirvana Effect has taken over. Aaron and Clarissa are members of a
subculture of realists who resist the lure of a fake utopia. They
watch in horror as the technology spreads across the country with
willing participants who easily forgo their freedoms for false
pleasures. When the young couple discovers a plot to enforce
compliance for mind control, the battle for free will begins. What
started as a playful diversion turns deadly. The future of the
human race is at stake. FLAME TREE PRESS is the new fiction imprint
of Flame Tree Publishing. Launched in 2018 the list brings together
brilliant new authors and the more established; the award winners,
and exciting, original voices.
