Dust in the sky Daniel Cantos Pardo

2071. The world is different now, but the mistakes are the same as always. The old global balance of power is a thing of the past. The USA is gone. China and India have emerged as the main world powers alongside Europe which, drowned in the economic crisis and the need to confront the Asian Coalition, has reinvented itself through neo-capitalism at the expense of its citizens. Traditional religions have been replaced by the House of Conciliation, an amalgamation of all of them that serves the interests of the State. Political freedom no longer exists, religious freedom no longer exists and freedom of thought no longer exists. Freedom no longer exists. In this context, three lives run parallel without knowing that they could change the course of history: Benjamin, a young publicist at the sweetest moment of his career; Emily, a senior government official determined to change the inequities of the system; and Seymour, a boy who threatens to destabilize the foundations of the new Faith. The mistakes are the same as always, but the world is different now. 'Dust in the sky' is the first instalment of this trilogy. The second part, 'Blood on Earth', will be available soon.
