Make Things, Learn stuff.

The Books

The Carl Saga

The country, and the planet, is healing from a crisis. Three young people are uncovering a mystery and building their power in this new world. Andy has picked up the mantle of April’s fame, Maya, struggling through grief, is following a string of mysteries that she is convinced will lead her to April, and Miranda is considering taking a new job at a company building a new technology that might have repercussions beyond anyone’s comprehension.

While there are many parallels to our current climate, “A Beautifully Foolish Endeavor” is a hopeful read that provides a “Black Mirror”-like warning of new technology without the heavy feeling of dread.
– USA Today

[A] raucous, boldly inventive tale of alien technology, social media and influencers, the limits of the human mind, and the lengths humans will go to get what they want. Even after a satisfying ending, readers will have much to think about.
– Booklist Starred

Filled with compassion, bravery, smart mobs and stupid ones, and a hell of a metaphor for late-stage capitalism, besides.
– Cory Doctorow

Throughout this adventurous, witty, and compelling novel, Green delivers sharp social commentary on the power of social media and both the benefits and horrendous consequences that follow when we give too much of ourselves to technology. An essential choice for all sf collections.
– Library Journal (starred review)
