katja’s world game: the game begins

It is 2022. What can Katja and her five friends, all students at a university in Bath, do to turn the tables and save life on Earth from imminent destruction?

Is technology the solution, or our downfall? The past and present are intertwined as the six students - from China, Iran, Northern Ireland, Norway, The Gambia and the USA - try to make sense of their world and save what can be saved.

The story Katja tells is not only her own - it is also ours. It is a story of fear, despair and anger - but also of hope and love.

Katja’s World Game is the first novel in a trilogy that explores the natural world, the supernatural, and the world of stories and video games.
