Description

In this Orwellian story of a future that could both happen and horrify, a university professory is forced to flee with his wife from the government that has perverted for their own ends many of his own discoveries about mind control; a Fascist America now sets out to destroy him. Finding refuge with a group of freedom-seeking fighters in a world they call Amorphous, he is introduced to their leaders, their aims and the God Machine... a micronizer that reduced people and objects in size and helps them escape the dreaded police called the Rehabs. How this secret world exists; the methods devised by its inhabitants to both survive and, hopefully to triumph; the lessons learned by both sides in the terrifying struggle between them... these are the exciting elements that fill this tale set in an all-to-possible future.
