About this ebook

Destroy the root of all evil or destroy ourselves. We decide. An eat the rich thriller from the author of Doomware and Xeno.

In the not-too-distant future the rich and unscrupulous are in charge. Their money controls governments. Their technology spies on every citizen. Their “System” promises equality but ensures the opposite.

After the System denies poor but brilliant Wesley Moon his dream career, an underground resistance group shows him just how deep the rot goes. Soon he's on the run, hunted by robotic assassins sent by a band of super-rich elites known as the Consortium.

But the worst is yet to come, when a new ally reveals the truth: inescapable horrors fuelled by money and greed are about to wreak havoc on planet Earth.

Ratings and reviews

Ok story I guess, some inventive ideas, but as you read, you realize it's a vehicle for a secularist vegan red rant. After so many years of all of hearing all the worlds problems are the fault of Britain in the 19th century, it's really too much to have all the future's problems and the end of the world dropped on 19th century Britain too. Lost interest when the plot got utterly silly.

Read the first 9 chapters and gave up. It's just a rehash of numerous conspiracy theories told in a simplistic way. There is plenty of truth in there but I don't need it to be spoon-fed in such a simple way.

My beliefs are totally different from how bleak the world is built in the book. The way they resolved themselves is quite extreme, logical, and noble in some way, albeit opposed with my own views. I can appreciate that the author tackled and divulged into concepts in life that are ever related to our existence.
