By 2056, the New World Order is in full control. The "Free Market" means that "Big Money" is free to do what its prophets or profits dictate. And if you're not part of the one percent that controls all of the wealth, your only hope of survival is mind numbing crass commercialism. Where your wants are manufactured by the fads and fantasies of capitalist junkies. But when Torque's friend is mysteriously killed, he is drawn into an underworld of humanist revolutionaries dedicated to bring truth and justice back to their world. He soon finds himself key to developing a new wonder weapon; the BlasterCaster. And only with this weapon will they have the firepower to fight back against the Greedy Hedonists and their mindless minions. That is, of course, they're not already doomed by a double agent in their midst; Torque's true love?
