PRODUCT INFORMATION

Description

One Mind. One Nation. With Murder and Mayhem for All.

Welcome to Anthem, the perfect meritocracy. Here, apex predators are allowed to flourish in all their excesses. No compassion, no morality, only pure, unadulterated ambition. Anyone who fails to become a psychopath gets replaced by One Mind.

Service android Jason Freeman was built to serve, not to kill. Even after years of therapy to "fix" him, he remains too meek, too human. But when the All-Father grants him a pardon, Jason must infiltrate Anthem's pantheon of elites, where murder is the ultimate currency.

Meanwhile, Prince Marcus Kane, heir to a bloodstained throne, has spent his life feigning the ruthless ambition his father demands. As whispers of unnatural abilities spread and Anthem teeters on the brink, Marcus must choose-uphold his legacy or burn it all down. Because when psychopaths smell blood, no one is safe.

Critic Reviews

"An unrelenting rollercoaster of a dystopian read... I felt that the idea of people striving to be branded a psychopath created a poignant social commentary about the lengths people will go to to get what they want."

-LoveReading, Indie Books We Love

"Armed rebellion and societal visions clash in this deeply immersive dystopia. Startlingly creative... I was put in mind of the science fiction stories of Kazuo Ishiguro (such as Klara and the Sun and Never Let Me Go). I highly recommend Alien Nation for lovers of secondary-world, character-driven science fiction."

-Independent Book Review

"Raymond King has created a powerful survey of moral and ethical conundrums that weave into the sci-fi scenario in unpredictable, gripping ways... The many themes that come into play in Alien Nation, from social acceptance, socially accepted pathology, shame and redemption, and miscarriages of justice create a multifaceted tale."

-Midwest Book Review

"A fascinating, eerie glimpse into a warped 'utopia' that reflects and critiques real-world societal ideals in ways that are sometimes chillingly real... King also masterfully builds suspense, particularly through Jason's tense infiltration and Marcus's deeply relatable struggle against his upbringing. This keeps readers on edge and makes every twist and revelation impactful for the characters' overall journey."
