Lincoln Michel: The Body Scout
photo credit: Adalena Kavanagh
“I tend to prefer worldbuilding that tries to conjure the world for the reader, giving interesting details that they’ll fill in themselves.”
Lincoln Michel joins me to discuss his debut novel The Body Scout.
In the future you can have any body you want—as long as you can afford it.
But in a New York ravaged by climate change and repeat pandemics, Kobo is barely scraping by. He scouts the latest in gene-edited talent for Big Pharma-owned baseball teams, but his own cybernetics are a decade out of date and twin sister loan sharks are banging down his door. Things couldn't get much worse.
Then his brother—Monsanto Mets slugger J.J. Zunz—is murdered at home plate.
