The only other choice is to be out from under the protection of Cloud, in the world that Cloud helped to destroy, a world that is barren and hot and has barely enough for survival. It's a life where people have learned to be happy with a sterile existence of working until they fall onto a thin futon, doing the same thing every single day, eventually just going through the motions, day in and day out. People can no longer really exist outside of the world of Cloud and living in the world of Cloud is an existence not worth living. The world of The Warehouse is a bleak world and sadly much too close to our real world than I would like to acknowledge. Set in the confines of a corporate panopticon that’s at once brilliantly imagined and terrifyingly real, The Warehouse is a near-future thriller about what happens when Big Brother meets Big Business-and who will pay the ultimate price. Together, they’ll learn just how far the company will go…to make the world a better place. If she can bear to sacrifice him.Īs the truth about Cloud unfolds, Zinnia must gamble everything on a desperate scheme-one that risks both their lives, even as it forces Paxton to question everything about the world he’s so carefully assembled here. And Paxton, with his ordinary little hopes and fears? He just might make the perfect pawn. But now she’s undercover, inside the walls, risking it all to ferret out the company’s darkest secrets. Zinnia never thought she’d be infiltrating Cloud.
Much less that he’d be moving into one of the company’s sprawling live-work facilities.īut compared to what’s left outside, Cloud’s bland chainstore life of gleaming entertainment halls, open-plan offices, and vast warehouses…well, it doesn’t seem so bad. Paxton never thought he’d be working for Cloud, the giant tech company that’s eaten much of the American economy.
And when you’re here, you’ll never want to leave.
