Asteroid Fever Robert Zwilling

It's 2037 now, a stormy, surrealistic, new world, ruled by industrialists. In 2020, the smallest things changed a world, now split between eaters of gengineered food made by frementators, peppered daily with vaccinations, and sippers of SIPs, synthetic insect blood laced with probiotics from Mars. Immortality and instant riches are within reach so long as one doesn't get killed along the way. Fake News dreamed up by Prezz Gredloy, broadcast by Dreaming News, sends a space fleet without space ships to fabulous low Earth orbiting Elevator City. Unable to win any battles on Earth, the plan is to conquer imaginary aliens and take control of Free Space. The only ones standing in Prezz's way, are a small group of ordinary working people, and the Pleiadeans working for the Pleiades Hydrosphere Cleaning Service, and both groups are only interested in furthering their own goals. It's only when their objectives become objects of Prezz Gredloy's greed do they band together. But is it too little, too late, to stop the Remaining Eastern States from taking a bite out of Free Space. A surrealistic science fiction story where nothing is what it appears to be.
