YES! YES! YES!

I am already scoping out a sequel in the TOTAL MELTDOWN (Borgo/Wildside)/THE EDGE OF MADNESS (Aignos) series. Several questions are central to the next book: 1) What will happen to our three protagonists now that they’ve all entered technical adulthood in NewAmerica? 2) What are the Enforcers? 3) Will NewAmerica experience anything like the prophesied waves of pandemics after COVID-19?

Let’s tackle the problems one-by-one: First, Andry — let’s call her by her “friendly” rather than her intimate or public names — is the only one of the three amigos who knows her family lineage, something generally illegal for people in NewAmerica, and they are national treasures, worshipped by many, reviled by an important few. A noted professional acronymeur, how will the public react towards her and her infamous public consort and uber-conscious uni-sensory savant, Draff/Rob/Brie — Rob — Rob with the sexually provocative simian tail. And what about Billie/Frann/Frunk — Frann to his adoring public — publicly au pair to Rob? Is there somewhere in the universe that the three complex firebrands can find where they can together thrive? Not everyone can emigrate off-NewTerra. To do so requires a major choice just prior to formal adolescence. One must decide whether to receive treatment to remain a child in physique and relinquish any future family, or to decline treatment and develop into a fecund adult, as have our three. Due to size and weight restrictions, only those who remain a child can travel in a spaceship off world. Already noticed by the Enforcers, trapped on NewTerra with little assurance of their future safety, what will our protagonists do?

Tune in to the third book in this series imagining a future world where pre-adolescents make decisions that unwaveringly determine the course of their lives. How different from our current world, really? I’ll address the second and third questions in subsequent posts, giving everyone time to read and take in THE EDGE OF MADNESS (Aignos 2020):
