"What does it feel like to wake up in the Panopticon? It's like
waking up for the first time ever. It's like waking up with a third
eye." When Moremi connects her brain to the Panopticon, a network
which allows you to see inside the minds and dreams of others, she
believes that it will save her from depression, loneliness and,
eventually, death. That is until she meets Orpheus. Orpheus was
brought up in isolation by a Neo-luddite father. He was raised to
question everything, including the government who plan to make the
connection procedure compulsory. They promise that connecting
everyone to the Panopticon will end human suffering and usher in a
more perfect world. But when Orpheus and Moremi uncover the dark
side of the technology, they find themselves on opposite sides of a
radical divide, between those who believe that the Panopticon will
save humanity, and those who will stop at nothing to destroy it.
The Circle meets Inception in an immersive and futuristic story
that explores love, loneliness and the limits of technology's
ability to save a humanity who might not want to be saved. Praise
for Temi Oh 'A major new voice. Read Temi Oh today. Everybody will
be reading her tomorrow' Stephen Baxter, author of World Engines

excellent at portraying the aching sense of loss on a one-way trip
to the stars' Guardian 'A tightly wound, emotional epic that asks
important questions . . . This novel is a brilliant, beautiful
debut. Reading it will change your heart' Christian Kiefer, author
of Phantoms
