Hyper advanced, sarcastic aliens have invaded Earth ... a funny, super smart work of science fiction from a thrilling new voice - Andy Weir meets qntm
An instant self-published online bestseller, STILL LOST is a refreshingly wry look at the world in the year 2080.
A hyper advanced alien race seemingly solves all existential threats-no climate change, no nuclear weapons, no singularity crisis...and yet, in crisis we remain. Because humans are their own existential threat. The world is not really dys- or u-topian, just 'topian', and the interconnected lives of its denizens are all the more fascinating for it. We meet a biologist grad student who tries to get her big break from visits with an alien sex worker. We encounter a baboon with human intelligence who live streams his life and is interviewed by an influencer. And we are introduced to a young man who must save his own life from the music that's taken him hostage.
Often funny and always profound, STILL LOST bends reality just enough for it to become a mirror and takes its readers on a daring and strange ride--an ultra-timely, sardonic inter-connected work that feasts on the follies and earnest absurdities of humanity. The book marks the arrival of a major new voice in science fiction, and will be loved by readers of Andy Weir, Douglas Adams, Matt Dinniman, and William Gibson.
