To put it simply, this novella is probably the weirdest thing I have ever read! (And I read some weird stuff)

But the weirdness and unfamiliar-ness of this novella is what makes it so great.

The story is revolved around Sydney, a boy living within another dimension…or a dystopian planet…but all he knows is the corridors within his city, and the regimented robotic lifestyles he and his parents live.

This civilisation has its own way of protection, and this is where Sydney’s adventure begins. In a plain white room, getting a small cube of flesh removed, he doesn’t know why, it is just what is done in this city.
