by Amanda Kilburn (Illustrator), Stefan Gagne (Author)
Mallory Heisenberg: an ordinary farm boy living an ordinary life in an ordinary world generated by a perfectly ordinary apparatus that constructs physical reality out of nothingness. Absolutely ordinary and completely unremarkable in any way, shape or form... until a house falls on his head, and things start to get uncomfortably exciting...
Welcome to the multiverse of Unreal Estate, where a network of artificially crafted worlds blends into a congealed wad of corporate wrongdoing, popular culture, software ethics, and criminal activity. Sorting through this mess (for the right price) is Mirai Consulting, a troubleshooting service operating out of a surprisingly mobile home that shifts between worlds at the press of a button.
Taken from the bits and bytes of the semipopular 2003 web novel by Stefan Gagne, available for the first time in print as a physical object you can hold in your hands which presumably exists. Assuming you exist. Which may not be a safe assumption...
Reality may not get out of beta today.
