Cancelled: The Shape of Things to Come
Danny King, author
New Britannia is a wondrous society of diversity, love and inclusion. Through progressive politics and social justice, its leaders have weeded out the bad apples and transformed the nation into a shining beacon of hope.
One of its most loyal citizens is Sienna Clay, a star auditor for a market-leading cancellation company who lives in Woking, a model metropole for a new age. She spends her days trawling the data of unsuspecting citizens looking for problematic views. Every offender she identifies is removed from the mainstream.
It is thanks to keyboard warriors like Sienna that New Britannia has become an oasis of tolerance in a world beset by hate.
However, Sienna’s own world is far from perfect. Her girlfriend has taken up with naturalists, her home OS is ghosting her and her co-workers are pressuring her into witnessing their sexual consent application. She has also been set an unsavoury assignment; investigating an ex-slaughterman with blood on his hands despite the prohibition of meat.
Sienna believes in New Britannia. She believes in her glorious leader and the ideals for which these once regressive lands were transformed into a golden utopia. Unfortunately for her, she sets into motion a train of events that will soon spell the end of everything she loves.
New Britannia is a wondrous society of diversity, love and inclusion. Except when it’s not.
