nA New York Times Best Sci-Fi and Fantasy Novel of 2021 nTimeless and original...The Body Scout is a wild ride, sad and funny, surreal and intelligent.--The New York Times n nI devoured it. --Jonathan Lethem n nCompletely weird and still completely real. Delightful--I couldnt put it down.-Shea Serrano n In the future you can have any body you want--as long as you can afford it. n nBut in a New York ravaged by climate change and repeat pandemics, Kobo is barely scraping by. He scouts the latest in gene-edited talent for Big Pharma-owned baseball teams, but his own cybernetics are a decade out of date and twin sister loan sharks are banging down his door. Things couldnt get much worse. n nThen his brother--Monsanto Mets slugger J.J. Zunz--is murdered at home plate. n nDetermined to find the killer, Kobo plunges into a world of genetically modified CEOs, philosophical Neanderthals, and back-alley body modification, only to quickly find hes in a game far bigger and more corrupt than he imagined. To keep himself together while the world is falling apart, hell have to navigate a time where both body and soul are sold to the highest bidder. n nDiamond-sharp and savagely wry, The Body Scout is a timely science fiction thriller debut set in an all-too-possible future. nn
