NuReal

by Stephen Cooper

Overview

Freddie Holman was born in the golden era of 1986, but he wants to travel. To another place and time.

And he can, if only he could get a promotion. But to get ahead at work he needs augmentation. Everyone who's anyone gets augmented; it's the ultimate luxury.

NuReal is the only healthcare company that can help him, but they are more interested in why their prototype synthetic human being is struggling to achieve consciousness.

Initially set in a distant future United States where we have successfully counteracted climate change. 'Production Security' ensures life carries on in their city; bordered by high walls, and enclosed by the Recycling Belt. Life itself is recycled, in each City that is reenacted.

But what if NuReal's technology transcends nation and time? Can it drive the gears of progress back into motion?

Freddie just got a job at Production Security. Where will it take him?

A fresh and exciting adventure for fans of the 'Westworld' TV series, and the international award-winning novel 'Time Shelter'
