Tasting light: ten science fiction stories to rewire your perceptions (Walker Books Ltd)

A mind-bending science fiction anthology from ten top YA authors perfect for fans of Black Mirror, Lauren James and Femi Fadugba's The Upper World. What does the future hold? Ten speculative short stories by leading young-adult authors imagine what the world could be through the lens of technologies emerging today. When the modification industry transforms how humans look, sound and interact, a nonbinary teen braves the "reinvention room" to accept a gift from the dead. Entitlement-fuelled drug use alters the landscape of white privilege, robots remember the Earth, and corporate "walkers" stroll for unknown subscribers - until one hacks the system. In tales buzzing with possibility, hope, innovation, anger and tenderness, Tasting Light offers a dazzling challenge to connect with open minds, hearts and senses in a fast-changing world.With stories by:William Alexander, K.
