Description

On a desert planet, two boys meet, sparking a friendship that will change human society forever. On the windswept world of Bleak, a string of murders leads a writer to a story with unbelievable ramifications. One man survives the vicious attacks but is left with a morbid fascination with death; he becomes the perfect candidate for the perilous job of working on a rig. Welcome to the System. Here the concept of a god has been abandoned, and a new faith pervades: AfterLife, a social media platform that allows subscribers a chance at resurrection, based on the votes of other users. So many lives, forever interlinked, and one structure at the centre of it all: The Rig.
