I am nonetheless chipping away at my summer time studying backlog over right here, and this week lastly made it to Alex Foster’s Round Movement, which got here out in Could. And, wow, I wasn’t fairly prepared for the emotional journey this one took me on. It is set in a close to future — folks experience OneWheels and going viral on social media remains to be a factor some attempt for — the place the megacompany CWC has created an excessive type of high-speed journey that enables folks to zip internationally very quickly flat. However, it quickly turns into fairly clear that there is a consequence for this. Earth is spinning quicker and quicker… and quicker, and protestors blame CWC and the orbital circuit its journey system depends on.
The times develop shorter, the local weather occasions develop into extra excessive and every part is hurtling towards catastrophe. Round Movement follows Tanner, a child from smalltown Alaska who lands a job at CWC, Winnie, a lady who has actually been via it, and Columbia professor Victor Bickle, who shot to viral fame after predicting a public infrastructure disaster. They’re all linked, as we piece collectively via a number of POVs. It is a e book that very blatantly has one thing to say about capitalism, local weather change and every part in between, and a lovely exploration of human connection in a crumbling world.
