Neon and Tears: Vapor Lights and Battered Souls

Bys: Cautilli, Joseph, Andrews, Johnny, Stegora, Dave

Book Overview

Neon and Tears invites you into a world where the lines between dream and reality blur, and the fight for humanity's future plays out in electrifying detail. This collection, brought to life by Joseph and Marisha Cautilli alongside a daring lineup of co-authors, fuses cyberpunk grit, dream punk surrealism, and solarpunk hope. Spanning the years 2035 to the 2090s, each of its eleven tales delves into the neon-soaked streets and shadowy underbelly of a world teetering on the brink.
From young detectives in the FBI's experimental teen program-who evolve from chasing criminals to becoming the elite Earth Corps-to the resurgence of the lone private eye navigating the labyrinth of a fractured society, these stories explore the strange, the sorrowful, and the fierce resilience of the human spirit. Kidnappings, stolen nukes, assassination plots, and gateways to alternate planes of existence set the stage for a future both eerily familiar and tantalizingly alien. Neon and Tears is more than just a glimpse into what lies ahead; it's a raw, immersive experience into the chaos and beauty of a world shaped by conflict and hope. Step into the future, and see what it takes to survive-and thrive-when everything is on the line.
