The Rude Eye of Rebellion
About this ebook
A reality show host struggles to find any meaningful way to rebel against the dystopian corporate state that picked him to be a star. Life doesn't pick winners and losers. That's for the corporations to decide. And they picked Liam Argyle for a carefree life of fame and fortune as host of the world's most popular reality show competition.
Unfortunately, Liam sucks at living carefree. After two seasons looking for the world's biggest victims on The Grass Is Greener, he's been forced to put on a happy face to one tragedy too many and he won't turn a blind eye to the corporate dystopian world of the 2070s any longer that picked him to be a star. Now, Liam is out to destroy the very people who made him a star and struggles to find any meaningful way to rebel against them. Even if he fails, he vows he'll never be a feckless pawn of the industrial-military-entertainment-culinary-janitorial complex ever again!

About the author
Born in Newfoundland, Canada, raised in France, and come into his own as an author while living near an 12th century abbey in rural England, J.R.H. Lawless is an attorney by day and a speculative fiction author by night, penning novels and short stories, mostly in adult Science Fiction which has been a lifelong passion for him.
He draws on his education and professional experience, including at Sciences Po Paris and the French National Assembly, to craft worlds that look ahead to the political, social, and economic challenges that face us all, both in the near and the more distant future, as humanity moves out into the Solar System and beyond. He also draws on his deep-grained love of Terry Pratchett and Douglas Adams to make sure his worlds are always full of tongue-in-cheek humour, and never take themselves quite too seriously, even when the subject matter itself could not be more serious.
Now living and writing in Atlantic Canada with his beautiful family, Lawless looks forward to sharing his worlds with as many people as possible.
