A spectacularly genre-bending retelling of Romeo & Juliet asking the big questions about true love, fate, and time travel.
Year: 2083. Location: London. Mission: Wake Romeo.
It's the end of the world. Literally. Time travel is possible, but only forward. And only, a handful of families choose to remain in the “now,” living off of the scraps left behind. Among them are eighteen-year-old Juliet and the love of her life, Romeo. But, things are far from rosy for Jules. Romeo lies in a coma and Jules is estranged from her friends and family, dealing with the very real fallout of their wild romance.
Then a mysterious time traveler, Ellis, impossibly arrives from the future with a mission that makes Juliet question everything she knows about life and love.
"This fast-paced, brilliantly futuristic Romeo and Juliet variation splits and swirls timelines, ecological collapse, and hope into a virtuoso five-act telling. This breathtaking, meticulously plotted adventure revitalizes a classic into a vital call to hope for the pandemic generation."
