They called it the Great Holophone Invasion of 2294.
This is the year the sleepy fishing village of Bree gets satellite reception and a free holophone for anyone who wants one.
Amazing holophones ... built with the 2D wonder-material that Earth scientists call graphene. Holophones are lightweight, indestructible, and capable of simulated virtual flight. With a simple command you can fly anywhere: over land, through a city, across an ocean, up into the clouds, out into space.
When progress-minded Lin di Ana wins an ambitious campaign to modernize her primitive village with satellite broadcast reception, a receiving tower goes up and the simple people of Bree are outfitted with holophones.
Lin is certain that life for everyone will improve, but when a vexing epidemic of holophone addiction breaks out, chaos erupts and Lin's naysaying enemies accuse her of bringing Bree to ruin.
