Description
A chilling thriller that blends nail-biting suspense with accessible science, Influx by Daniel Suarez is set in a future where technological advances are held hostage by the government. Physicist Jon Grady and his team have made a groundbreaking discovery - a device that can reflect gravity - but their lab is locked down by a covert organization known as the Bureau of Technology Control. The bureau's mission is to suppress the truth of sudden technological progress and prevent social upheaval, but Grady refuses to join. He's thrown into a high-tech prison housing other doomed rebel intellects, where he must try to expose the secrets of an unimaginable enemy that wields a technological advantage half a century in the making. As the only hope to usher humanity out of its artificial dark age, Grady and his fellow prisoners must navigate this treacherous world of advanced technology and government control.
