When The Sleeper Wakes: Dystopian social science fiction alternative history revolutionary struggle tyrannical council labor slavery future London aerial combat political intrigue space opera military action adventure

In 1897, Graham fell into a cataleptic trance. He woke up 203 years later to find he owns the world. But in this hyper-urbanized nightmare, being the 'Master of the Earth' is a gilded cage.

'When The Sleeper Wakes' is a high-octane Alternative History and Action & Adventure epic. London has transformed into a vertical labyrinth of glass and steel, powered by the sweat of 'Blue Canvas' slaves. Graham’s inheritance has funded a global tyranny, and now, the mysterious Council wants him silenced.

Rescued by the charismatic Ostrog, Graham is thrust into a Military coup that spans the globe. As he navigates the dizzying Moving Ways and the clinical Hall of the Atlas, he discovers a world on the brink. While the elite dream of Space Exploration and the possibility of Alien Contact, the common man dies in the industrial Under-Galleries.

This is a Space Opera of the soul, where the battlefield is a hyper-industrialized London. Graham must master the art of aerial combat in a desperate attempt to break the Labour Company’s monopoly. From the claustrophobic streets to the terminal peace of the upper atmosphere, his journey is one of corruption, wealth, and the ultimate sacrifice for liberty.

If you are a fan of George Orwell's '1984' or the soaring rebellion of Pierce Brown’s 'Red Rising', you will love 'When The Sleeper Wakes'. Experience the foundational masterpiece of dystopian fiction today.
