The Pashtun Boy's Paradise — Stephen Hunt

The future is beautiful ... just not for everyone! Ash must escape from his broken war-torn country, fleeing towards mythical Europe, or face murder at the hands of a brutish local warlord. The one slight problem is, few ever survive the horrifying packs of ravenous hunting machines roaming across the depopulated border zone! But his perilous odyssey might be worth it. For in this future Europe, nobody goes hungry or poor. Crime has been as good as abolished, and everyone can pursue their dreams, whatever their passions may be. But when you have the perfect utopia, just how far do the clock's hands need to sweep to strike dystopia? Masterfully imagined and written, this haunting vision of our future questions what it means to be human, and firmly crowns Stephen Hunt at the vanguard of the science fiction genre.
