"If you love Black Mirror, this...will send shivers down your spine."--Teen Vogue

"Appealing to fans of Black Mirror and Westworld, it's a thrilling read that explores an exciting and terrifying near-future." --Paste

"[An] extraordinary work...groundbreaking in both form and substance." --Hypable

This "powerful, poignant, and action-packed" (Bustle) novel is a twisted look into the future, exploring the lengths we'll go to remake ourselves into the perfect human specimen and what it means to be human at all.

The future is curious.

STRONGER

Today our bodies define us. We color our hair; tattoo our skin; pierce our ears, brows, noses. We lift weights, run miles, break records. We are flesh and blood and bone.

FASTER

Tomorrow has different rules. The future is no longer about who we are--it's about who we want to be. If you can dream it, you can be it. Science will make us smarter, healthier, flawless in every way. Our future is boundless.

MORE BEAUTIFUL

This is a story that begins tomorrow. It's a story about us. It's a story about who comes after us. And it's a story about perfection. Because perfection has a way of getting ugly.
