American Psycho meets Blade Runner in Alien Nation-a mild-mannered android must infiltrate a society that idolizes sadism-or be erased.
IN THE UTOPIA OF ANTHEM, EVERYONE WANTS TO BE A PSYCHOPATH.
For eighteen-year-old Jason Freeman, this dream has always felt out of reach. A service android doesn't dream of murder-he is made to serve. Even after years of intensive therapy, Jason remains awkward and meek. Unlike other androids, he feels genuine compassion, a trait blacklisted in Anthem. When he learns he's to be replaced, Jason feels a glimmer of relief, knowing his struggle will soon end. Yet, the prospect of a soulless avatar taking his place fills him with deep, seething dread.
His childhood idol, Prince Marcus Kane, was raised to despise deviants like him. Despite all the lurid temptations that come with his stature, Marcus refuses to wash his hands in blood. He has always seen himself as hopelessly naive, a romantic-the antithesis of a psychopath. When his father, the godhead of Anthem, promises the love of his life to a despicable deviant, Marcus fantasizes about burning it all down.
But everything changes when the All-Father offers Jason a special pardon. To win back his right to exist, Jason must infiltrate the pantheon of tyrants, where murder is always graced with a smile. His mission will push Marcus to the brink of madness, as Anthem descends into civil war. And when the flames of revolution reach the doorstep of psychopaths, no one will be spared.
Alien Nation is a pulse-pounding story about desire and carnage, and what happens when society pushes us too far. Some themes and scenes may be disturbing to readers.
