HIGH TECH, HIGH WATER, AND THE HEAD OF AWKWARD QUESTIONS
A cozy sci-fi mystery from the winner of the Green Stories Prize!
The year is 2101, and half of England is underwater.
But society is recovering from the Melt, thanks to ArkTech, whose eco-friendly headquarters sit serenely above the newly formed Fenland Sea.
As ArkTech's Head of Awkward Questions, Charlotte Vance is dedicated to helping Ben, the company's curious AI. Ben has a fondness for dad jokes, a knack for spotting anomalies, and happens to be Charlotte’s best friend.
Naturally, when Ben notices a geneticist vandalizing pre-Melt books and a librarian looking the other way, he sends Charlotte to investigate.
What starts as a quirky case of stolen blank pages and clandestine book clubs soon leaves Charlotte caught between the black-market operation she thought she’d left behind and the company she's always trusted.
Set in a near future that is neither utopia nor wasteland, Artificial Selection is ideal for listeners who enjoy character-driven whydunnits, or charming sci-fi with humour and heart–perfect for fans of Terry Pratchett, Martha Wells, and Becky Chambers.
