What if happiness were compulsory?
What if your thoughts were not your own?
Plunge into HEDON for soul-twisting sci-fi.

In 2051, the Bhutanese Empire rules post-apocalyptic Shangri with iron-fisted Buddhist compassion. Happiness is compulsory, but making everyone happy isn't easy in an overpopulated world. Breeders are ghettoed, homosexuality is mandatory, and Shangrians' happiness levels are strictly monitored by hedometers implanted in their heads. Become depressed, or feel too happy without helping others feel the same, and The Tax Man will get angry. Very angry.

Gemini and Cyan, winners of the pregnancy lottery, are on the run. Cyan can't fall pregnant, and Gemini is addicted to the Experience Machine. Will they evade The Tax Man, and find a way to end the brutal pleasures of Shangri?

The lovechild of Brave New World and The Handmaid's Tale, HEDON is gritty satire on a dystopia drunk with bigotry and positive thinking.

"A one of a kind dystopian novel."
"As politically depraved as anyone could desire."
"This is storytelling at its best."
