Book Review: The Disruptors by Joseph Darlington
In an alternative 2016, celebrities are going missing... Mysterious inventor, Zane Lund, has created a device capable of shrinking objects down to the molecular level, or infinitely growing them. Sammy Habib, a plucky and rebellious Internet journalist, is looking for the story that will make her career. Alongside unwitting accomplice John Barton, a lonely farmhand, she embarks on a series of bizarre adventures as they try to uncover the truth behind these stories. As the technology takes off globally, a collective of governments sign an agreement to regulate how it can be used. Naturally, a seedy criminal underworld emerges as those with the knowhow start using the powers for nefarious purposes. Anything is possible for the right price... The Disruptors is a comedically dark satire of technology and it’s unknowable applications, and an allegory on clickbait news and celebrity-worship.
