'Engrossing ... Big Brother meets Big Business - that pretty much nails it' Stephen King 'A gripping read, a literary blockbuster with brains. Horribly compelling' The Observer 'A triumph' The Guardian ___________________ In a world ravaged by bankruptcy and unemployment, Cloud is the only company left worth working for. But what will it cost you?

Amidst the wreckage of America, Cloud reigns supreme. Cloud brands itself not just as an online storefront, but as a global saviour. Yet, beneath the sunny exterior, lurks something far more sinister.

Paxton never thought hed be working Security for the company that ruined his life, much less that hed be moving into one of their sprawling live-work facilities. But compared to whats left outside, perhaps Cloud isnt so bad. Better still, through his work he meets Zinnia, who fills him with hope for their shared future.

Except that Zinnia is not what she seems. And Paxton, with his all-access security credentials, might just be her meal ticket.

As Paxton and Zinnias agendas place them on a collision course, theyre about to learn just how far the Cloud will go to make the world a better place.

To beat the system, you have to be inside it.

Recenzijos

A gripping read, a literary blockbuster with brains * Observer * Featuring an explosive twist-in-the-tail climax, this terrifying hybrid of Orwells Nineteen-Eighty-Four and Zamyatins We is a triumph * Guardian * A dark satire The Warehouse fires an exhilaratingly unsubtle broadside against a world where the wage gap is becoming a yawning chasm * Financial Times * A thrilling, thought provoking read almost more fact than fiction * Daily Express * A convincing, horrifying post-Orwellian future brilliantly imagined * BBC Culture US * Rob Harts The Warehouse conjures a warped but recognizable near-future America that nails the dystopia-as-utopia aspect of our worst nightmares. Like the best dystopian fiction, The Warehouse holds up a dark mirror to our times. * San Francisco Chronicle * The Warehouse raises questions about how much power and control we should allow one company to have. When a hugely profitable business says their aim is to build a better world, should we take them at their word? * BBC Science Focus * A thriller of ideas, and its interplay of taut action and incisive cultural commentary gives it shades of Fahrenheit 451 and Jurassic Park ... When [ it] lives in this dissonance between good intentions and corporate desolation, it really shines * USA Today * On the surface, The Warehouse is a thrilling story of corporate espionage at the highest level, but dig a little deeper, and youll find a terrifying cautionary tale of the nightmare world we are making for ourselveswhere our reliance upon e-commerce giants is turning them into malevolent entities more powerful than government. * Blake Crouch, New York Times bestselling author of Dark Matter * I loved The Warehouse, although and because it made my blood run cold. The world Rob Hart creates is what our world could be by this time next year. Watching these oh so human characters try to cope, even thrive, in their new normal makes one alternately hopeful and despairing. Bravo! * SJ Rozan, author of Ghost Hero *
