'Ken Champion's Future Tense is a novel of ideas brought to life by a
cast of characters struggling in a new world order where Equality under
a neo-liberal regime has been codified to an authoritarian extreme in an
Orwellian dystopia. Meanwhile, the true master - internationally
conglomerate capitalism - lets the puppets tangle their own strings.
Champion, ever the master of unappealing male protagonists, leaves room
for doubt and a semblance of redemption even if the better times of
childhood may be more false dawns. With a strong, contemporary premise
taking head-on the prominent controversies of today, this book ought to
come with some kind of health-warning.' Phillip Ruthen, Waterloo Press
