The Aetherverse

by Joseph D'Urso, E Bryan

It is the year 2869 Æx., and the sun is setting on humanity’s golden age. The once glorious Convergency has fallen into the hands of a corrupt elite, and a lone corporation has seized limitless power over the innocent citizens of the galaxy. But when a noble marshal, a lowly temple harlot and a band of unlikely allies find themselves caught in the middle of an insidious conspiracy, it seems that tyranny may have met its match. Part adventure, part political thriller, The Aetherverse redefines sci-fi as we know it, and tells the story of a democracy fallen, and a tragic history dangerously repeated.

About the author

Joseph (Joey) D’Urso is a born-and-raised Long Islander living far from home, and despite his relocation, he has yet to lose his New York accent. He was born to a loud Italian-American family and takes great pride in his surname’s apostrophe.

Creative even from elementary school, he has been writing fiction longer than he cares to remember. His published novels include Devils in Sunday Hats, a tale of redemption, coming of age and the death of the American dream, and The Aetherverse, an incendiary space opera for troubled times.

Aside from writing fiction, Joey is an avid saxophone player, having played alto sax for over 15 years. He also has an intense interest in languages (both real and fictional) and graduated from Binghamton University with a BA in Arabic.

Thought provoking and riveting.

Ayn Rand meets the excitement and surrealism of science fiction.

A groundbreaking new venture into a new genre and way of thinking.
