Pilgrim Process






This, the author's Dystopia, is published by him at both Kindle Direct Publishing and Smashwords (in several useful formats). The latter makes it available via a number of affiliate libraries, to include Sony in due course. It is already available via:

Diesel e-books.

Barnes and Noble "Nook"

Kobo


For any reader who does not own a dedicated e-reader device:
Amazon do a downloadable free reader for PCs and Mac, Android etc. that will read their normal "MOBI" format e-books, and Adobe do a very acceptable free "Digital Editions" reader for PCs etc. to read the EPUB (and PDF/A) editions available from Smashwords and most of their affiliates.

Dedication
The work is dedicated to Alan Myers and Sadie Martineau. A very useful website of Alan's work, including his Literary Guide and "Famous People" which are are must for anyone researching literature or culture in North East England, could once be found, but The Alan Myers Website seems to have disappeared, probably because there's nobody paying the subs.

Sadie was not such a public figure and there is currently no website in her memory. Alan's article on Yevgeny Zamyatin is a recommended read for anyone who's finished reading "Pilgrim Process".

The cover illustration is by Laura Hoerster.

The author also has a Smashwords page which will have news of future publications.

The ISBN for the Kindle Direct Publishing edition is 9780957157606

Update 11/03/2017: Originally written in 1996, this novel predicts a global version, the "Monetary Accounting Unit" or MAU, of what is now being referred to as the "Fedcoin" that is, an electronic currency that's not even paper.
