Ya está a la venta United States of Japan, de Peter Tieryas, de la que hablé en este mismo blog la semana pasada.
Ésta es su sinopsis:
Decades ago, Japan won the Second World War. Americans worship their infallible Emperor, and nobody believes that Japan’s conduct in the war was anything but exemplary. Nobody, that is, except the George Washingtons — a group of rebels fighting for freedom. Their latest terrorist tactic is to distribute an illegal video game that asks players to imagine what the world might be like if the United States had won the war instead.Captain Beniko Ishimura’s job is to censor video games, and he’s tasked with getting to the bottom of this disturbing new development. But Ishimura’s hiding something…kind of. He’s slowly been discovering that the case of the George Washingtons is more complicated than it seems, and the subversive videogame’s origins are even more controversial and dangerous than the censors originally suspected.
Tenía mogollón de ganas de leerla, pero cometí el error de leer primero Bald New World, que no me gustó mucho. Prometía por las reseñas que había leído, pero luego me pareció tirando a flojita, ni tan loca ni tan divertida ni tan ingeniosa ni nada de nada, y lo peor de todo, escrita un poco con el ojal.

La de Bald New World la vi en su día, pero la sinopsis y la portada me echaron mucho para atrás.
