This Is A Dreamland, This Is A Dreamland

The year is 2188. Or so some believe. Orwell is dead, and so is democracy. In the faraway country of WorldStage, fair is foul and foul is fair. Ruled by the iron fist of a brutal regime called The Committee, the people of the nation are cut off from the rest of the world. Education for the common masses is banned, and the Annual Book Burning Ceremony has come to be the biggest festival here. As the nation plunges head-first into this barefaced celebration of destroying knowledge, a rebel rises to become the face of change. 'This Is A Dreamland' follows the dual narratives of protest and conformity to the oppressors. Meet Stana, a young rebel who teams up with an aging mercenary called Scott to slip past the brutal Committee Police Force, showcasing the weakness that lies behind the guns and violence. As her escape inspires an uprising, turning her into the leader of a rebellion, the novel also follows Sam, a lawyer. Struggling to mend his relations with his estranged son, Brennan, Sam is a hardcore Committee loyalist lawyer who played judge, jury, and executioner in his kangaroo courts. With the rebellion causing uproar, Sam sees it as an opportunity to gain more political power, as Stana commits to bringing down the regime once and for all. As all roads lead to home, tomorrow and tomorrow and tomorrow creeps in a petty pace to deadly ends.
