"An Epic Science Fiction Political Noir!" - BookLife
FROM AWARD-WINNING SCREENWRITER AND DIRECTOR NOAM JOSEPHIDES, COMES THE 2024 DEBUT NOVEL AWARD WINNER 'GENERATIONS' - A HEART-POUNDING ROLLERCOASTER OF CONSPIRACY, LOVE, TREACHERY AND REDEMPTION ABOARD THE GENERATION-SHIP 'THETIS'.
"Thought-provoking, innovative and brimming with emotional depth!" - SciFi Book Review
For eight generations, the Thetis has been a peaceful haven, carrying the last remnants of humanity on a journey to resettle on a new planet. Nearing its final destination, Thetis is seemingly a Utopia: egalitarian, tolerant and united. A society ready for a new beginning.
But when a strange extortion attempt targets the ship's leader, that idyllic facade begins to crack. And when SANDRINE LIET, the introvert Archivist tasked with investigating the case starts poking around - the prime suspect mysteriously disappears.
Nobody disappears on the Thetis.
Sandrine is pulled into a web of intrigue and deception, sending her on a direct collision course with the most powerful people on the Thetis - and with her own values. Every step she takes, her suspicions of a grand and far-reaching conspiracy grow - as are the personal consequences for her future if she keeps pursuing the investigation.
To uncover the truth, Sandrine will have to confront the specters of her past, gather unusual allies and embark on a journey to the very origin of the Thetis.
GENERATIONS is a heart-pounding tale of political intrigue and personal sacrifice, where love, betrayal, and shifting loyalties intertwine. It is the story of the indomitable will of a woman who refuses to bow down to tyranny, and of the enduring power of truth in a world built on lies.
Praise for "Generations":
"Like the best Science Fiction classics, Generations reminds us that the future is a canvas of our making, and with it - our definition of being Human." - Reader Review
"Generations' message hits hard, while being a fun and engaging rollercoaster." - SciFi Book Review
A timeless tale of the dark side of ambition, and the courage to defy the evil it spawns.
Really loved the ambition in this book, the breadth of the world-building effort and intricate details of how society would evolve in the conditions of a multi-generation journey through space.
Seems like the author has thought about every little aspect without glossing over the hard questions…
Love it!
