Wroten creates, a cast of disaffected young characters struggle to find their purpose in life. Faced with a dying Earth and numbingly useless jobs, protagonists Ellis and Dr. Otis Heck invent an immersive virtual reality game, \u003cem\u003eEden II\u003c\/em\u003e. But when Heck betrays Ellis and sells the game to a mysterious corporation, the lines between fantasy and reality begin to blur. As each chapter highlights a new character in the ensemble, the game's impact grows as the world becomes consumed by fantasy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eComing off the heels of their acclaimed queer comics \u003cem\u003eCannonball\u003c\/em\u003e and \u003cem\u003eCrimes\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem\u003eEden II\u003c\/em\u003e is Wroten's magnum opus, establishing them as a breakout graphic novelist. Philosophical, sarcastic, self-assured, \u003cem\u003eEden II\u003c\/em\u003e is a vital work of the moment that positions Wroten alongside recent comics luminaries like Emily Carroll, Isabel Greenberg, Melanie Gilman, and Tillie Walden. Reminiscent of the stylised angst of Gregg Araki and Jamie Babbit's works, Wroten's imagery in \u003cem\u003eEden II\u003c\/em\u003e reflects the blighted pastiche of Andrei Tarkovsky's \u003cem\u003eStalker\u003c\/em\u003e—and they have suffused that pastiche with a dark sense of humour and technologically enhanced moral ambiguity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Unknown","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47362561179884,"sku":"9781683967583","price":75.99,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/15379103482787.jpg?v=1772892707"}],"url":"https:\/\/bookhero.co.nz\/collections\/kenny-wroten.oembed","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
