Description

Book Synopsis

The first in a new series of novels from Dan Houser, writer of the Red Dead Redemption and Grand Theft Auto series.

Everyone tries to escape from paradise.

Mark Tyburn dreams of building the perfect video game. Kurt Fischer dreams of being a rich and successful executive. Daisy Tyburn dreams of having the ideal father. John Tyburn Smith dreams of fitting in. NigelDave just dreams of becoming human.

Set in the near future, A BETTER PARADISE tells the story of the ill-fated development of an ambitious but addictive video game project that goes very wrong. As the software they developed starts to produce unexpected and disturbing results, the project is shut down and abandoned. Until now.

Review Quotes

"Hugely entertaining, brilliantly written, informative and AI savvy. Set in 2046 where it seems Dan may already have been somehow."--Chris Evans "Virgin Radio"

"This book has everything you could possibly want. Interesting and complicated characters, humor, a sense of foreboding, and is a brilliantly executed story that leaves you wanting more."--Ray Porter

"A harrowing techno-futurist fever dream of justifiably paranoid creators being hunted down by their own creation. A gamedev's worst nightmare, imagined by one of the best writers ever to work in the gaming industry. "Frankenstein" meets "Free Guy"... if both were on a really bad acid trip."--Ernest Cline, author of Ready Player One
