Kalifornia

by Marc Laidlaw
Kalifornia by Marc Laidlaw
Unrated

Meet Sandy Figueroa, TV teen heartthrob of the future. Thanks to the miracle of the wires, his every sensation can be shared by audience participants across the world. Well... could be. Since Mom died in an accident on the moon, the family show has gone into reruns. Only Sandy's older sister remains on the wires in her highly rated show, Poppy on the Run. And now, on the eve of California's bicentennial, Poppy plans some fireworks of her own: live on the wires, she's going to bring new life into the world – Calafia, the first human born wired. Which makes the child more valuable than Poppy knows. Which explains why someone kidnaps her. Which means that, by fate's fickle hand, it's up to Sandy to rescue the child of the future. What lousy news for the world!

Marvelously inventive, wildly funny, Kalifornia is a stunning excursion into the State of the Future.
