Nine worlds. Each one is ours - just slightly broken.
Is it a world of machines that want to be treated like humans? A world where water is the currency of life? A world where non-digitized art is rare? A world of too many people and too few bodies? A world that's ending? A world of war? A world of powers? A world of censorship? A world of prisoners?
Stories of a Possible Future drops you into nine dystopias that feel less like science fiction and more like next Tuesday. Riley's worlds are at once frightening and familiar, impossible and imminent - told with the cinematic urgency of an author who knows exactly when to pull the rug out.
Readers who never finish books have called it impossible to put down. Readers who avoid hard sci-fi have called it approachable, human, and terrifying in the best way.
More than an anthology, this is a meditation on what it means to be human in an increasingly inhuman world.
Thought-provoking and hard to put down. These stories were approachable. Something I could see really happen. Drops you into the middle of a unique dystopian world.
