In a near future United States where the subliminal power of television has been boosted to irresistible levels, Dodd Corely is a man increasingly at odds with the world. His live-in girlfriend, Sheila, is addicted to the popular Travels television station, which features 24-hour-a-day viewing of a hypnotically seductive sphere bouncing on an endless, surreal journey through a variety of unspoiled natural environments.

His friend and fellow veteran of the South American War, Danny Marauder, has joined the Anarchists, a disreputable group dedicated to the overthrow of the established order. His best friend, Toby, is so busy watching the Travels station’s #1 rival, Jesus TV–which has just announced the greatest live special in television history: the Second Coming of Jesus Christ–that he fails to notice his own daughter is pregnant . . . a crime punishable by sterilization in this overpopulated society.

About the Author

Jerry J. Davis is a Scorpio with his moon in Scorpio, which means he's a Double Scorpio. To make matters worse, when he was a toddler in Douglas, Arizona, way back in the 60’s, he was stung by a scorpion. It was a radioactive scorpion, too, which is why he now has super powers.

Okay, he made that part up. But he is a Double Scorpio who’s been stung by a scorpion. By all rights that should make him a superhero named “The Scorpion” but unfortunately, no.

He just writes quirky science fiction and fantasy stories often involving gods and goddesses, the true nature of reality, and more often than not, beer.
