Description

The prequel to the award-winning BioShock video game franchise. In 1940s America, a sense of disillusionment and fear gripped the nation. The devastating effects of World War II had left deep scars, and the government's increasing control over business and society was seen as a threat to freedom. Amidst this turmoil, a charismatic entrepreneur emerged with a vision for a utopia free from government interference and moral restrictions on science. Andrew Ryan's ambitious project, Rapture, promised a better world where individuals could flourish without constraint. However, the city's downfall would be a tragic consequence of its own hubris. This book tells the story of how Rapture came to be and ultimately succumbed to its own darkness.
