Synopsis

Do You Love a Great Sci-fi Mystery?

From the writer of the acclaimed novel, The Mary Celeste Papers, this page-turner will make you wonder, laugh, cry and think about our world in equal measure! Are The Machines Finally Taking Over . . . ? Set in a Utopian society in 2042, intelligent machines seem set to take over the planet. The interruptions to the normal, smooth running of an untroubled world have already begun in the form of 'the glitching'. Everybody sees the problems, but due to the numbing effects of a secret government mechanism, nobody is bothered enough to react when mankind's defenses are probed in readiness for humanity's last stand. Only Cyril Greaves, the disgruntled proprietor of the English Pub League website, along with his eccentric band of friends seem ready and willing to step into the breach to fight the forces of mayhem and anarchy, and save the world. With only an under-developed, prototype robot, a group of Sunday league soccer players, an extremely annoying teenage genius, Neville the lonesome strider, and a handful of psychopaths to help him, Cyril must defeat the mighty corporations and the all-seeing quantum super-computer menace before it's too late. Or, maybe it's not as simple as that . . .
