Eminent Domain by Carl Neville
In the Socialist Utopia of the Peoples Republic of Britain a routine criminal investigation spirals out of control with world-shattering consequences.
"In this gripping, witty and richly detailed science fiction, Carl Neville shows us a parallel Britain forged out of political uprisings and economic transformationThe governing ideology is from another world, but the technology and culture are unmistakeably ours."
"Eminent Domain is that rare thing — a near-utopian version of the present more advanced and progressive than our own, rendered with a level of vivid and intricate detail comparable with William Gibson at his most disorienting."
"What if the future we were promised had really arrived? Carl Neville's pacey, compelling thriller plays out against the complexities, contradictions and conflicts of a world that might have been and points the way to one that might yet arrive."
"Sound art, free beer and acid communism meet in Carl Neville's brilliantly imagined political thriller."
