Synopsis

Offlining (noun): giving up the online world for reality, where the graphics aren’t great, nobody can fly, and everything hurts.

Jerusalem Pix virtually lives in the virtual worlds he loves until his high school crush asks him to do a teeny, tiny favor: stop her brother from becoming the next cult-inspired suicide bomber to target the wealthiest one percent.

Jeru ventures from his safe life in cyberspace (and his parents’ condo) into the chaos of mid-21st century Atlanta, where terrorism and religious zealotry are rampant, and the ultra-rich have retreated into their own state-within-a-state. Now, Jeru will have to become a hero in real life, with no do-overs, save points, or bathroom breaks.


Praise from literary agents and publishers who rejected this book:

  • "George's prose is just delightfully packed full of wit. Reminded me a lot of reading Lock In by John Scalzi, but funnier."
  • "Tremendous talent as a writer: voice, great details and world building,"
  • "It's sharp and witty and brilliantly creative. I enjoyed following Jeru through his transformations, both internal and external."
  • "I found the concept and protagonist charming."

À propos de l'auteur

GJ Weinstein is the unimaginative pseudonym of an Atlanta area author who has delighted and inspired thousands of readers with his serious-some would say melodramatic-works of fiction and has helped innumerable writers on their publication journey through his efforts on behalf of an historic nonprofit that requested to have its name withheld here lest it be connected with this rather suspect piece of work.
