A Better Paradise

Productdetails

In Dan Houser's dystopian thriller A Better Paradise, Mark Tyburn dreams of building the perfect video game. Kurt Fischer dreams of being a rich and successful executive. Daisy Tyburn dreams of having the ideal father. John Tyburn Smith dreams of fitting in. NigelDave just dreams of becoming human.

It's 2041. Set in the near future, A Better Paradise tells the story of the ill-fated development of an ambitious but addictive video game project that goes very wrong, in a world growing ever more divided, where people retreat into digital worlds to reconnect with themselves.

What begins as an idealistic attempt to build a refuge - an adaptive virtual space shaped by its users' deepest desires - slowly turns into something far more unsettling. As the software they developed starts to produce unexpected and disturbing results, the project is shut down and abandoned.

Until now.

A Better Paradise is the thrilling debut novel of Dan Houser, writer of the legendary Red Dead Redemption and Grand Theft Auto video game series. For fans of Ready Player One.
