Overview

"WIT AND WRY HUMOUR."
- EDWARD KAY, author of At Rope's End

"COMPELLING. ENTERTAINING."
- ARJUN BASU, author of The Reeds

"DUTTON IMMERSES YOU IN A NEW WORLD, THEN YOU FEEL IT SHIFTING..."
- CAMPBELL CLARK, The Globe and Mail

2084 IS A DEADLY, SOUL-CHURNING SATIRE.

The future is perfect. Just don't look too closely.

Worldwide fame and fortune beckon for sculptor Santiago Khan in a new North American megastate where a Board chosen by reality show viewers runs the country as a corporate paradise. But his life begins to derail after learning of a connection to purple-haired, sexually confident Mira Cool, who builds her online brand by disrupting major art installations similar to his.

When Santi's father is misdiagnosed and held captive by AI healthcare bots, Mira joins Santi on a fateful mission as they risk their lives to uncover the truth about the Board. Can they reveal their findings before the government tracks them down?
2084 depicts a frighteningly possible future of genetic body modification, a virtual religion, palliative entertainment, personalized porn, and chip implants that track every citizen's moods and movements.
Utopia or dystopia? You be the judge.

CAUTION: This book is rated 18+ (explicit sex, body horror, and menacing AI.)
