Dead Monkeys

"A remarkably amusing and insightful novella." - Ryan Hyatt, author of the Terrafide cyberpunk series Robert Lopez invented technology to change the world, not destroy it. Starting a philosophical debate with his “braintroller” that allows animals to speak to each other and us, Robert inadvertently helps humankind stumble headlong into the apocalypse. In a near-future miasma of poor decision-making and economic principles gone awry, Robert must navigate the dystopian world he helped create while searching for safety, and maybe, if he’s lucky, redemption too. If you like to laugh at our own fatalistic human tendencies don’t miss Dead Monkeys, by A. L. Lorentz. An amplification of dystopian tropes taken to equally comedic and terrifying heights, Dead Monkeys will have you laughing and crying about how we treat ourselves and the changing world around us.
