Bienvenue au Building, un gratte-ciel infiniment haut situé au centre du multivers, où chaque étage peut contenir une vaste oasis désertique, une forêt tropicale au cyanure ou un monde entier.

Carissa adore son ascenseur. Elle monte et descend, satisfaite de la nourriture parfois mâchouillée que lui crache son générateur de réalité, tant qu’elle n’a pas à parler à une autre personne vivante.

Mais lorsqu’un mystérieux métamorphe venu d’un monde ambigu atterrit sur le toit de son ascenseur, avec l’intention d’arrêter un complot visant à anéantir des centaines d’étages, Carissa se retrouve à sortir de sa zone de confort. Elle est forcée de s’enfuir dans le Wild Massive network of theme parks in the Building, where technology, sorcery, and elaborate media tie-ins combine to form impossible ride experiences, where every guest is a VIP, the roller coasters are frequently safe, and if you don’t have a valid day pass, the automated defense lasers will escort you from being alive.

Welcome to the Building, an infinitely tall skyscraper in the center of the multiverse, where any floor could contain a sprawling desert oasis, a cyanide rain forest, or an entire world.

Carissa loves her elevator. Up and down she goes, content with the sometimes chewy food her reality fabricator spits out, as long as it means she doesna’t have to speak to another living person.

But when a mysterious shapeshifter from an ambiguous world lands on top of her elevator, intent on stopping a plot to annihilate hundreds of floors, Carissa finds herself stepping out of her comfort zone. She is forced to flee into the Wild Massive network of theme parks in the Building, where technology, sorcery, and elaborate media tie-ins combine to form impossible ride experiences, where every guest is a VIP, the roller coasters are frequently safe, and if you dona’t have a valid day pass, the automated defense lasers will escort you from being alive.

Media

“Throughout this sprawling, ambitious romp, Moore draws from numerous perspectives and gleefully embraces the inherent absurdity of both setting and premise… Readers are in for a rollicking trip through the fun house.” ―Publishers Weekly

“The latest from Moore (Battle of the Linguist Mages) is perfect for those who enjoy offbeat sci-fi where the weak stand up to the strong.” ―Library Journal

Praise for Battle of the Linguist Mages

“By the halfway point, it had blown my mind twice and accumulated such cavalcades of incident that I couldn’t fathom where it had left to go ― but it found places, and it went there.” ―The New York Times

“It reads like Snow Crash had a dance-off with Gideon the Ninth, in a world where language isn’t a virus from outer space, it’s a goddamn alien invasion.” ―Charles Stross

“Sparklepunk meets Snow Crash! One of those books that hits you with an amazing new idea every couple of pages, and it makes for a wild ride.” ―Django Wexler

“A frenetic romp… a whole lot of fun… Glitter-bombed popcorn fiction at its finest.” ―Kirkus STARRED REVIEW

“A roller coaster of weird in this wildly entertaining gonzo adventure… Readers will love it as much for the outlandish ideas as for the narrative complexity and sense of fun.” ―Publishers Weekly

Praise for Your Favorite Band Cannot Save You

“Scotto Moore understands a key truth about Ziggy Stardust: Rock and roll messiahs are really fucking scary.” ―Kieron Gillen

“Absolutely stunning. A fast-paced, psychedelic blur of music, tech, and things way beyond either. I picked it up, and it simply would not let me go until the final page was read.” ―Ramez Naam

“Moore writes with a playful jauntiness that buoys the growing darkness rather than undercutting it. His details about a certain subset of music nerds give the story some great texture… the ride is a fun one and the soundtrack is killer.” ―Locus
