Description

A new technology has emerged, promising a perfect society, and resisters are not long for this world . . .

Ahead, not too many years from now, everyone has been linked to a network of government-mandated brain implants. The Interface has become a way of life, connecting all people to limitless information, nonstop personal messaging, and instantaneous news flashes. Gone are the days of cell phones and laptops-even loneliness itself is obsolete.

But when the genius behind the Interface turns against his own creation and threatens to unleash a deadly electronic brain virus on the public, the fate of the world falls on NYPD Captain Yara Avril, who must stop this sinister, ever-escalating plot before it's too late. A thrilling nod to a future waiting just around the corner, Interface is a remarkably prescient exploration of the potential links between boundless connection and cataclysmic disaster in digital society.

Reviews

"[Interface] is an engrossing page-turner . . . an often entertaining and energetic dystopian yarn with plenty of intricate action." -Kirkus


"Captivating from page one, you'll be drawn into the web of this intriguing and thought-provoking novel that imagines a scary (and maybe all too real) new world." -Steve Berry, author of The Omega Factor


"Save a spot on your shelf between Yuval Noah Harari's Sapiens and Jennifer Egan's The Candy House. Scott Britz-Cunningham's Interface is the human devolution we've been worried about." -Scott Hylbert, author of Task Lyst


"An intriguing mix of a good mystery and a twenty-first-century view of an Orwellian future. Interface is an entertaining, fast-paced detective story that provides a credible scientific and clinical version of what might be possible in the not-so-distant future." -John Donoghue, PhD, Wriston Professor of Neuroscience and Engineering at Brown University's Carney Institute for Brain Science

The shipping was just superior

The shipping was just superior; not even one of the books was in contact with the shipping box -anywhere-, not even a corner or the bottom, so all the books arrived in perfect condition. The international shipping took around 2 weeks, so pretty great too.

Found a hard to get book…

Finding a hard to get book on Booksplease and with it not being an over inflated price was great. Ordering was really easy with updates on despatch. The book was packaged well and in great condition. I will certainly use them again.
