“My ways were not their ways, nor my dreams their dreams. My dreams were in fact made of entirely different stuff from theirs. But now they were all dead, and only I remained alive.”
Welcome to the new normal. In the near future, humanity has been united into a one-world government following an attack by malevolent, mysterious aliens known only as “Overlords.” Despite the supposed threat posed by the aliens, the new Global Government is more focused on cracking down on civil liberties and pacifying the surviving humans with a new designer drug called “zap.” When a man who lost his family during the Overlords' attack encounters a strange woman in his living room one day, he becomes ensnared in a dark plot reaching the highest levels of world power.
The Insurrectionist is a piercing look at censorship, conspiracy, and social control in the modern era. Andy Nowicki's first new work of fiction in seven years, The Insurrectionist offers a wry and bleak look at the “crises” plaguing our society and the sinister schemes that may be in store for the human race.
