Zeke Yoder vs. the Singularity (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781732128910)

A mind-bending dystopian science fiction that merges the metaphysical speculation of Philip K Dick with the thrilling adventure of queer Amish cyberpunk. When Zeke Yoder's grandmother is bitten by a genetically modified rat on his Iowa farm, the Amish teen is propelled into a world changing so fast he can barely make sense of it. Introduced to new technologies and new desires by his cyborg buddy Gonzalo, Zeke speeds down hallucinatory highways and through elaborate rat tunnels to save his grandmother and find new land for his people. In a world of conspiracies and counter-conspiracies, and faced with the new government's anti-Amish policies, Zeke is never quite sure who to trust. In a series of adventures with evangelical clones, off-Grid rebels, drugged robots, and intelligent rodents, Zeke will be forced to question everything he has believed and the very nature of reality in the 21st century. There is a newly installed anti-human government and ferocious resistance to that government. There are paranoid scientists in underground bunkers, solar-powered mutants with unconventional desires, and anti-technology terrorists who behead robots. There are love triangles and apocalyptic catastrophes, new kinds of consciousness and new kinds of meat, cryptic messages in the seedy streets of the decaying cities that crashed after the "new meat" boom. This is the first in a series of five books following the adventures of Zeke, his childhood friend Leahbelle, and the mysterious rebel Gonzalo. The second book is Leahbelle Beachy and the Beings of Light, the third is Gonzalo Vega and the Portal Down Below, and the fourth The Voice of Q.
