TOR B O O K SWalkawayA NovelCory DoctorowCory Doctorow’s first adult novel in eight years: an epic near future taleof revolution, love, post-scarcity, and the end of deathFascinating, moving, and darkly humorous, Walkaway is a multi-generation SF thriller about the wrenchingchanges of the next hundred years and the very human people who will live with the consequences.Hubert, Seth, and their ultra-rich heiress friend Natalie are getting a little old to hang out at the “Communistparties,” techno-raveups in abandoned industrial spaces, full of insta-printed drugs and toys. And Natalie wasfinished, years ago, with her overcontrolling zillionaire dad.Moreover, now that anyone can manufacture food, clothing, shelter with equipment comparable to a computerprinter, there seems to be little reason to to stick with the world of rules and jobs. So, like hundreds of thousandsof others in the mid-twenty-first century, the three of them walk away.Mind you, it’s still dangerous out there. Much of the countryside is wrecked by climate change, and predatorsare with us always. Yet when the initial pioneer walkaways flourish, more people join them. Then thewalkaways discover the one thing the ultra-rich have never been able to buy: how to beat death.Now it’s war—a war that will turn the world upside down.CORY DOCTOROW is a coeditor of Boing Boing and a columnist for the Guardian, Publishers Weekly, and Locus. His awardwinning novel Little Brother was a New York Times bestseller. Born and raised in Canada, he lives in Los Angeles.4
