Networked

By LK Chapman

A different way of life. A totally new form of existence. All it takes is one step.

Nick and Dan are two people who need their lives to change. Exhausted, broke, and cracking under the pressure of trying to hold everything together, it begins to seem like there is no end in sight. Until the videogame they've spent two years developing mysteriously disappears to be replaced with something new, something better, something finished.

But soon their decision to release the strange new game lands them in a situation more desperate than ever. Because the game is not content to simply be played. It wants to change, it wants to grow. Soon it evolves into something far beyond their understanding; something dangerous and unpredictable, an unstoppable force which could change the course of human life, forever.

LK Chapman

Louise Katherine Chapman was born in Somerset, UK, in 1986. She studied Psychology at the University of Southampton before working as a psychologist designing personality questionnaires for a consultancy company. She published her first book, Networked, in 2014- a science-fiction novel that challenges what it means to have a human life; calling into question our ideas about happiness, mortality and the meaningfulness of our existence. In the story, LK Chapman draws on her own experiences of depression- and in particular how it affects a romantic relationship- to inspire the fictional account of depression that runs throughout the book. LK Chapman lives with her husband in Hampshire, UK. She is currently working to promote Networked, and plans to write more novels in the future.
