Synopsis

This imaginative and thought-provoking book of quips, reflections, and antagonisms reads in the spirit of science fiction. The author deems it "philosofiction". Δ

* * *

The year is 2066.

The world's youngest and undisputedly most powerful country, generally entertains only the most prominent visitors and immigrants. However, this year it has intentionally attracted an otherwise uninteresting young man of average station. When the powers that lured him cannot find him, the hunt begins.

Misunderstanding his importance, multiple operatives of high station and various loyalties race to find him. As time progresses, the intensity thickens. Those who join this man find their own lives disrupted and changed forever, swept up by the storm surrounding him.

While he means no harm to anybody, his pursuers will not rest until he is found and destroyed. It is only a matter of time. Bombarded with varying opinions about the truth, this man struggles for discernment and understanding, but what he believes cannot save him - or can it?

* * *

Pragmatic dogma, theology, and atheology collide and argue in the background as we follow this unhero through a quick, comedic, dark, and philosophical journey of determining what he is - deciding between God, Man, and The Machine.

This 280-page volume includes maps, art, footnotes, appendices, and more.

About this title

About the Author

Daniel Strasel (1973-present) "I just wanted to make some art. I hope you like it." Daniel Strasel, born September 15, 1973, sole progeny of an eccentric, yet intelligent nurse named Sue. He emerged into life a genuine, happy child. Soon thereafter, he grew into a brooding and self-centered adolescent. A wild, ambitious, and impressionable young adult was followed by a confused, frightened, and purposeless man. Following his tweens he finally found humility, discipline, and compassion before his overdeveloped sense of self-importance destroyed him completely. The world and its demands notwithstanding, he continues to devote himself to the embellishment and propagation of his literature. Learn more on his official Web site: www.Mirroranium.com
