Throughout the 21st Century, our world (at least for those of us inside the North American Union) has become increasingly connected. So much so that we really are now thinking as a single fluid organism, changing not just how we live our daily lives, but who we are as a species. In Sterling Gibson’s newest thoughtful exploration, one of the NAU’s most renowned thinkers explores and illuminates how hyperconnectivity and The Beam have changed us forever.
=========
Plugged is a fictional history through the year 2097 set in the world of The Beam. According to the “author” the book is following the “here is my theory, and here are the facts to back it up” style of exposition, while in reality the authors were using it as a method of world-building and providing the fans with more background information without bogging down the series itself with endless exposition. In both instances, the book works fantastically.
