LOVE MINUS EIGHTY
Three hundred years in the future, technology has extended the lives of the rich and attractive by decades. The wealthy can arrange to be reanimated multiple times (with diminishing returns), while in cryogenic dating farms, dead women await lonely suitors to resurrect them and take them home. In this daring and big-hearted novel, the lovelorn navigate a world in which technology has found the outer limits of morality and romance.
Will McIntosh won the 2010 Hugo Award and is the author of the novels Soft Apocalypse (2011) and Hitchers (2012) both published by Night Shade. He has also won an Asimov's reader poll, and received a Nebula Award nomination. McIntosh is a professor of psychology.
Praise for previous novels:
"Hugo-winner McIntosh delivers a moving tale of individual grief and recovery against the backdrop of a devastated world." - PW (starred review)
"McIntosh has written a first novel that's compelling, credible, and relentless, who's best and most disturbing moments will stay with the reader for a long time." - Locus
"A grim glimpse into a future that is not all that improbable...This is the sort of thoughtful sociological SF we see too seldom today--the kind of work Pohl and Kornbluth did in the 1950s. Well worth a read." - Peter Heck, Asimov's
(A Seth Fishman book for the Gernert Company)
