Futuristic conspiracy entwining AI bees and belief.

Imagine a world integrated with artificial intelligence to the point where natural and synthetic boundaries blur. That's the scenario "1.4" lays out, with subtle hints of environmental commentary through the intriguing concept of artificial bees. If you enjoy unraveling conspiracies and questioning what's real in a richly-built dystopian setting, this book by Mike A. Lancaster promises to glue your thoughts to its pages. Plus, it's a chance to ponder on the eerie prophecies of tech-induced human evolution.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.

Description

It's a brave new world. In the far future, people no longer know what to believe...Did Kyle Straker ever exist? Or were his prophecies of human upgrades nothing more than a hoax? Peter Vincent is nearly 16, and has never thought about the things that Strakerites believe. His father - David Vincent, creator of the artificial bees that saved the world's crops - made sure of that. When the Strakerites pronounce that another upgrade is imminent, Peter starts to uncover a conspiracy amongst the leaders of the establishment, a conspiracy that puts him into direct conflict with his father. But it's not a good idea to pick a fight with someone who controls all the artificial bees in the world.
