Riassunto

When we last saw William Weinberg, CEO of Beta Platforms Inc., his mind was collapsing into a havoc of algorithm-addled insanity. But he seems much better now and has come swinging back into public life, and plans to launch his own virtual universe, the Betaverse. While the Betaverse doesn't actually exist when William announces it in 2021, the world hangs on his every word; promised a flawless dream world of untold quadrillions of possibilities. All William had to do was build it. No big deal, right?

Over the next few years, the Betaverse grew beyond William Weinberg’s wildest ambitions and became something beautiful, unstable, and profoundly dangerous. Now, a handful of unlikely heroes must unravel the nightmare behind William Weinberg’s unstoppable and wonderous creation, warping the lives of billions. There’s Capucine, a hopeful young woman looking to make her mark on the world. There's Ewan, a well-connected screw-up, currently in hiding after accidently destroying the Betaverse's foremost brothel. There's Mo, a father and husband with a warrior's heart. Finally, there's Rory. He’s on the dim side, but he might be humanity's last hope against world dominated by a lying, scheming virtual universe, ruled by an insane, sentient AI system intent on self-preservation at all costs.

The Electric Heist is a satirical sci-fi thriller. A heist like no other against a seemingly all-knowing and all-powerful villain, reaching from the digital world to across solar system. Adventure awaits.
