Zyon is a boy who lost his legs in an accident: the only salvation, to avoid being disabled for life, are the “UltraGambeW”, a new technology produced by the laboratories of the tycoon Mr Elyiah. The Amazon, Zyon’s older sister , she doesn’t trust technology at all, so much so that she has joined a group of rebels who, in order to oppose the more toxic tendencies of Mr Eliyah’s projects, risk arrest and prison. Babylon, Mr Eliyah’s son, is the victim of technology: he is a virtual reality addict and lives almost as a recluse. During a fateful event, the destinies of the three boys meet, Babylon and the Amazon, like Romeo and Juliet, find themselves bound by a feeling but separated by a greater clash. And Zyon will have to choose which side to take, while Mr Elyiah works on a project that can make him immortal and the Rebellion prepares for the final assault to prevent him from completing it, an exciting and convincing debut novel, with a cinematic pace but capable of profound reflection on our world and feelings.
