Aprašymas

Like most citizens in the year 2109, Professor Herbert Florance is trying to cope, trying to stay unnoticed, below the radar, of the excessively controlling, omnipresent MONDA regime, which has many dark, evil cracks beneath its seemingly utopian surface, including state-sanctioned cannibalism.

Professor Florance is under constant MONDA observation due to his family's history, which is steeped in activism against this new world order - so he's saddened but not surprised when he is abruptly terminated from his teaching position without cause. However, his new joblessness proves short-lived when he's suddenly offered the 'job opportunity' to travel outside the new world's jurisdiction to the 'Abandoned Countries' to help a team of scientists trying to find a cure for a new strain of prion diseases, neuro and muscular degenerative diseases that could potentially wipe out Earth's entire population. But is his new job a MONDA trap - a potential death sentence? Or will he find a cure - and perhaps also discover the true reason behind 'accepted' cannibalism that drives the protein industry? Evilutionaries is the gripping story of an ordinary man's struggle against an unaccountable oppressive regime controlling a complicit society facing possible extinction - and it's the debut breakthrough novel of a remarkably talented writer, Jordan Koren. - Michael B.
