Elite Memories

Beschreibung

AS SOCIETY COLLAPSES, IS TRANSFERRING HUMAN MINDS INTO ANIMAL BODIES OUR ONLY HOPE? In the dystopian world of 2150, memory transfers between humans have become a carefully controlled mechanism of power-until everything goes terrifyingly wrong. Damon Najor, the privileged son of an authoritarian leader, finds himself unexpectedly transferred into the body of a sheepdog after a mysterious transfer gone awry. As sentient animals suddenly begin receiving human memories, a dangerous conspiracy emerges. Shanya Tourni, the duplicitous lead scientist of this oppressive system, may hold the key to this unprecedented disruption. Meanwhile, Chatura Singh works in the shadows, risking everything to uncover the truth behind a global network of brutal control. Hunted by security forces and struggling to survive, Damon must transform from a self-centered elite into a leader of a new sentient animal society. With the apocalypse looming, he becomes an unlikely hero in a desperate fight to expose the truth and challenge the brutal system that once kept his father in power. Part biological thriller, part revolution, this gripping novel explores the thin line between humanity and survival when the powerful are challenged from the most unexpected places.

Autor

David J. Gibson was born in Cuckfield, West Sussex, England, where he worked as a teenager delivering newspapers, caddying golf, working in a sports shop, and serving drinks in local pubs. He attended Warden Park School and Haywards Heath 6th form College before going to the University of Reading to study botany. Crossing the Atlantic, he studied for his Masters in botany at the University of Oklahoma before coming back to the UK for his PhD at the then University College of North Wales (now Bangor University) - if you remember him, please get in touch. After post-docs at Rutgers University and Kansas State University, and an Assistant Professor position at the University of West Florida, he settled in 1984 at Southern Illinois University Carbondale, where he became a Professor of Plant Biology and University Distinguished Scholar before retirement. Married with two grown-up children and two grandchildren, he's finally given up dreaming of being a professional football (soccer) player. He remains a fan of Brighton and Hove Albion football club in the English Premier League. His books include textbooks, a popular book on forensic botany, and now this first novel.
