THE MOMENTUM WARS
In a Detroit drained of all luck, six broken probability thieves must steal chance itself back from a man who wants to eliminate uncertainty forever.
Detroit, 2087. Nothing unexpected ever happens. Every coin lands exactly as physics predicts. Three million people living without the possibility of surprise.
In a Detroit drained of all luck, six broken probability thieves must steal chance itself back from a man who wants to eliminate uncertainty forever.
Detroit, 2087. Nothing unexpected ever happens. Every coin lands exactly as physics predicts. Three million people living without the possibility of surprise.
Zephyr Calculus used to be the best Momentum Raider alive-a thief who could steal fortune from lightning strikes. Now she's down to her last 47 kilolucks, barely enough to find her keys in the dark.
When she learns Kairos Infinitum has drained seventeen cities to build his Singularity-a world without random tragedy, but also without joy-Zephyr assembles one last crew:
And they'll face the terrible question: Is a world without random tragedy worth living in if it's also a world without unexpected joy?
Part heist thriller, part philosophical adventure, THE MOMENTUM WARS asks what you're willing to sacrifice for the chance that tomorrow might be better than today. With prose that crackles and action that bends reality without breaking it, this is a story about the jazz of the universe and why uncertainty is the engine of hope.
Sometimes the house wins. Sometimes you steal the house. And sometimes, if you're very lucky, you teach the house to dance.
Ocean's Eleven meets Cloud Atlas. Perfect for fans of Ted Chiang and N.K. Jemisin.
When she learns Kairos Infinitum has drained seventeen cities to build his Singularity-a world without random tragedy, but also without joy-Zephyr assembles one last crew:
- Casino Blackjack, a gambler whose fingers flicker between existence and transparency.
- Echo Paradox, who can split into seven versions of herself but loses her soul each time.
- Vertex, Zephyr's ex-husband, whose Probability Cancer turns everything he touches into dead certainty.
- Nix Fibonacci, her brother, secretly burning his life away to fuel her luck.
- Flux Meridian, a time thief who ages decades in minutes to steal the seconds they need.
And they'll face the terrible question: Is a world without random tragedy worth living in if it's also a world without unexpected joy?
