"Great read, very thought provoking and occasionally funny." PGR
From the award-winning author of the international best-seller, Epic.
These are the tales of Eternal Voyager. Tales from a distant future in which all life is virtual. Everyone in the Metaverse takes for granted the ability to teleport; to change shape; to create entire planets for their playgrounds and to make backup copies of themselves, so they cannot permanently die. And what do these people who live beyond the conventional universe do with their powers? Mostly they party.
What happens when a hedonistic society that has never known the use of money invents the concept? At first, a lot more work gets done. But very quickly, the race to gain Kudos develops a dark side.
Eternal Voyager is one of the first to opt out of the scramble for Kudos. But can he restore the metaverse to it's former, fun-loving, days?
