Toby wasn't ready to die in 2008 and wake up in 2088. 2088 wasn't ready for Toby either.
Gen-X computer hacker Toby is a classic American: impulsive, irreverent, intelligent, and inventive. And, after a silly accident in 2008, he can add "inanimate" to the list-because Toby is dead.
But only for a while. Eighty years later, medical science has advanced enough to bring Toby back to life.
Welcome to Southern California, 2088. The skies are clean, but the rich-poor social gulf has widened. The biggest industries are entertainment and the prison system. Taxes have been cut-because the main source of government revenue is the confiscation of property. Many new, designer recreational drugs are legal, and many other drugs are mandatory. And while the US leads the world in cosmetic surgery, in most technologies America lags far behind…
America has changed. Toby hasn't. And in the collision between America 2008 and America 2088, Toby brings the system to its knees-just by being his freedom loving, problem solving self.
Read Tomorrowville and join Toby for love, sex, politics, and cyberspace-plus the occasional turbocharged wheelchair and robotic rat.
"A cautionary tale of a cruel, authoritarian America of the future that's leavened by barbed wit and irreverence."
"A 20th-century hacker confronts a dystopian future with skepticism and hope."
"A metaphor? Quite possibly. An excellent read? Oh, yes. Definitely."
"Funny, unexpected and frighteningly insightful, Isaak's Tomorrowville takes the problems of today and stretches them to their logical and disturbing conclusions, presenting the reader with a vision of Christmas Future Dickens-style. Isaak has deep things to say about America, debt, the future of technology and the value of life, but his most valuable contribution may just be his profound mirth. Isaak finds delight in human beings, despite or perhaps because of, our smallness and imperfection. It takes a lot of heart to look at a future for America so dark and find what is funny in it, but that is what makes Isaak a visionary."
