The Second Life of Linus Hoppe — Anne-Laure Bondoux

After intentionally getting himself expelled from Realm One, Linus Hoppe believed he would experience more of real life. But life in inferior Realm Two is a nightmare. For months Linus has been imprisoned in a factory, where he toils on an assembly line. At night, he's so tired that he no longer dreams of a future, of the destiny he wanted to create for himself. As for his family and friends, he fears he'll never see them again. He especially misses Chem and Yosh, his co-conspirators in fooling the Great Processor. What made them think they could change society's rigid hierarchy? Ready to give up, Linus must somehow regain hope and the will to fight for his freedom.
