內容簡介

The Sky Curse series follows Cecilia Miller, a coder of artificial dreams living in the year 2045. It's a time when climate chaos has become the norm and the collective mental health of humanity has fallen to a grave state. The world's population has grown to a horrific twenty-five billion people, maxing Earth to its limit. Most are planning to abandon Earth and leave it to its fate as they colonize a new world through Titan pioneering (those beings are called Universalists). However, there are those who still hold on to hope for Earth and a humanity untainted by AI (those beings are called Localists). As humanity struggles to survive, it seems like only technology can help, and Cecilia is determined to be the one to bring it about. When planet Earth faces apocalyptic events, she must summon her resolve and resilience if she's to have a chance to save this world. Book Reviews: "Exceptionally well-written, creative, and utterly unique, Sky Curse by Janet Kravetz is the modern YA genre's equivalent of Aldous Huxley's Brave New World. The book turns Huxley's use of Soma, sleep-learning, and psychological manipulation into something that could be genuinely helpful, at least at first...and it works in the context of Kravetz's brave new series. The novel is written in prose most suitable for older teens and younger adults, but the intelligent advancements and themes that Kravetz brings to the forefront are expansive enough to tickle those with more exacting tastes in literary technicalities. I liked Cecilia. Some might find her portrayal as a blonde, blue-eyed character a little trope-y, but she is intelligent without being infallible and feeds well into the authenticity required to bring a protagonist to life. There are some real twists involved in the plot, including revelations that exonerate her in satisfying ways. The Chosen Five is a series I will be following and look forward to whatever book two has in store for us." Readers' Favourite "Janet Kravetz fuses the tragedy of a decaying world with stellar storytelling to force readers to contemplate a future that could be theirs if they fail to take care of our world. She writes themes that are resonant and crafts a tale that will have contemporary readers thinking about how their actions affect the environment. The characters are relatable and real, and the author's ability to vividly explore the psyche of the characters shines through the narrative. In turn troubling and exciting, The Chosen Five is more than a dystopian narrative. It is the tale of humanity, bold in its exploration of existential conflicts and deft in its execution of relatable themes and believable characters. Fans of science fiction and fantasy will gulp this down quickly and then think about the warnings embedded in the tale." The Book Commentary

Early Testimonials:

"This enticing novel warrants action against climate change by showing us a glimpse of a frightening society that has neglected our planet and is reaping the dangerous consequences. An excellent, thought-provoking read for youth and adults alike." N. K.-B. "I love the premise, the amazing plot twists and that it reads like a realistic, probable and alarming near-future dystopian novel - I could be alive to see that future. The intricacies of new technology, human happiness and fulfilment, and even religion, are all complicated subjects that were blended together well for this story." G.M.

"Although it's not my favorite genre, it was very thrilling to read. I was both entertained and worried for the main characters, while learning new things about issues that might come back to bite us in the future, if we don't take care of them now." W.A.
