Redaktör Adams har tidigare givit ut Wastelands och The Living Dead, med efter katastrofen som tema. Den här gången handlar det om storebrorsmentalitet, när staten tränger sig in i varje aspekt av vardagslivet, à la Orwells 1984. Med bidrag av bland andra Neil Gaiman, Orson Scott Card, Kim Stanley Robinson och Ursula K Le Guin.
Your every movement is being tracked, your every word recorded. Your spouse may be an informer, your children may be listening at your door, your best friend may be a member of the secret police. You are alone among thousands, among great crowds of the brainwashed, the well-behaved, the loyal. Productivity has never been higher, the media blares, and the army is ever triumphant. One wrong move, one slip-up, and you may find yourself disappeared - swallowed up by a monstrous bureaucracy, vanished into a shadowy labyrinth of interrogation chambers, show trials, and secret prisons from which no one ever escapes. Welcome to the world of the dystopia, a world of government and society gone horribly, nightmarishly wrong.
