The Uploaded




Life sucks and then you die...a Cyberpunk family drama from the Nebula and Compton Crook award finalist and acclaimed blogger.

A “sharp, weird, and wildly innovative” cyberpunk family drama set in a world run by the afterlife—from a Nebula Award finalist (Cherie Priest, Locus Award-winning author of Boneshaker)

In the near future, the minds of the deceased are uploaded into the computer network, where they control the world from the afterlife. For those still on Earth, living is just waiting to die—and maintaining the vast servers which support digital Heaven.
 
For one orphan that just isn't enough. He wants more for himself and his sister than a life of slaving away for the dead. And it turns out he’s not the only one who wants to reset the world...

PRAISE FOR FERRETT STEINMETZ

"Flex is a real gem - sharp, weird, and wildly innovative. It zigs when you think it'll zag, then tricks you into screaming when you're ready to laugh out loud. So drop everything and settle in for the night - because once you open this one, you're not going anywhere."
- Cherie Priest, author of Boneshaker, winner of the Locus Award for Best Novel and the PNBA Award, and nominated for a Nebula Award and a Hugo Award.

"Amazing. I have literally never read a book like this. Read this NOW, if only to be forced to turn the page wondering what the hell Steinmetz is going to come up with next."
- Mur Lafferty, Campbell award-winning "Best New Writer 2013" and author of The Shambling Guide to New York

"Featuring one of the most original magic systems ever devised and a pair of likable, layered protagonists, Flex is a fast-paced, imaginative, and emotionally engaging adventure. The developing friendships and rapport among the characters are portrayed with sensitivity and avoids cliches, and the magical battle sequences are rigorous and filled with ingenious touches that will make gamers and tax lawyers alike grin with joy."
- Ken Liu, winner of the Nebula, Hugo, and World Fantasy Awards
