Part 1

Neon City. Where your own toaster is plotting your murder, and the government's best defence is a tactical squad featuring a laser-eyed cyber-gorilla and a vat-grown clone of Pope Francis. Neve had a simple task: track down "Enlightened" household appliances and shoot them before they could turn humanity into a bloody pulp. But when a routine hit on a rogue phone box goes super wrong (on Omega scales)-Neve learns some unexpected truths. Nothing is as it seems in this cyberpunk/biopunk novella with strong elements of dark humour, government conspiracy and a decent level of cosmic threat.
