Optima Terra: The Many Lives of Darren Decko

By Scott Simms

Optima Terra presents both opportunity and despair for a bewildered young man named Darren Decko, who must deal with its strange rules, evolved from hundreds of years of experimental society-building. Everyone on Optima Terra must move-actually, dissipate-every four months: this means leaving behind current jobs, roommates, lovers, and city of residence, to take on a fresh new life. Several rotations later, he meets Rachel, his true love. However, when Moving Day arrives, they reluctantly part ways, lest either forfeit the crucial livelihood set by their harsh world. Darren must soon find out who is actually in charge of Optima Terra, or he will lose Rachel forever. To keep his hopes alive, he must also light a spark under the revolution that will drastically alter the rules of his world.Redshirts meets 1984 meets The Truman Show.
