Head of Zeus are delighted to be offering 5 hardback copies of the Nebula-award-winning A Song for a New Day by Sarah Pinsker to 5 reading groups.
This unnervingly prescient novel explores life in a world permanently locked down in the aftermath of a pandemic.
BEFORE.
Luce Cannon is on the road. Success is finally within her grasp: her songs are getting airtime; the venues she’s playing are getting larger. But mass shootings, bombings and now a strange contagion are closing America down around her.
The gig Luce plays tonight will turn out to be the last-ever rock show as the world’s stadiums, arenas and concert halls go dark for good.
AFTER.
Rosemary is too young to remember the Before. She grew up, went to school and works in the virtual world of Hoodspace. But now she’s about to do something she’s never done before… she’s going to take to the road, in the real world.
Working for StageHoloLive, which controls what is left of the music industry, her job is to find new talent, search out the illegal backroom jams and bring musicians into the Hoodspace hologaphic limelight they deserve.
But when Rosemary sees how the world could actually be, that won’t be enough.
