Glitched

by E.A. Lake

This is what happens after a pandemic, what happens when citizens give away their rights. This is what becomes of a once-great country. Glitch – A glorified snitch Peeb – Common citizens living under the oppressive government Selmo Nithiw – The mysterious, unseen, almost mythical leader of the Peebs This is pure dystopian! Edgy, raw, real. Think of it as a combination of Orwell's Big Brother and The Usual Suspects. It's 50 years in the future. It's still America, just not an America that anyone will recognize. The government's evil reach chokes its citizens. So much that they, the people of the United States, have started a secret revolution. Their target? The tyrannical establishment that means to keep the people oppressed. A small band of anti-government citizens fights in Minneapolis. Their unseen leader, Selmo Nithiw, has a part for each of them to play in the battle. Their weapon of choice is not a gun, but computers and people. Hopefully, with scores of planted people, they can bring their government to its knees and regain the power. Led by a misfit known as Trent, one group works feverishly to save the government's latest nabbed Glitched citizen – Trent's friend Lucy. Time is against them; they'll have 12 hours to try and save her. If that's what is truly best for all parties. Will Lucy live? Will Trent and his gang be discovered? Will Selmo Nithiw show himself? Will America survive?

Novels are based on recurring dreams that can last for weeks at a time.

No where near as dark as my writing would make me. Happy guy with a normal life.

Loves all things dystopian.

Excellent!

Glitches is book about a dystopian American future. The government is watching everyone and will grab those it feels are working against them. A Glitch is a lowly government employee that snitches on people that may or may not have done anything at all. In order to get food for himself and his mother, Trent must turn in names to his supervisor. But there is a revolution in the works! A couple of mysteries the government is trying to solve. A small group of friends are working together for a mystery man to help the revolution really begin. The mysteries make the book. I have to say that by the time I was halfway through, I knew the answers to the mysteries. This is a great read and I do recommend it!

Caution

This was not what I expected, it was better. Do not start to read this before you go to bed. This book will suck you in and not release until the last word. Every book e a Lake writes out does the last and this one will not disappoint.

I wrote it, so I probably shouldn't rate it. But I really loved writing this novel.
