Synopsis
When magic is controlled by the world’s biggest tech company, a young intern will do whatever it takes to climb the corporate ladder and grasp real power…
Kaden’s first week as an intern at the world’s most powerful company is not what he expected. Magical monsters, technological mysteries, and talking pets are just the beginning. Every day is a challenge, as he learns to navigate poor performance reviews, deadly monster attacks, and backstabbing office politics.
Will he survive long enough to discover the truth about his father? How ruthless will he become in order to achieve his goals and take his revenge? What power must he gain to make his way up the Tower?
What to Expect: The Tower of Power: Business Edition is a sci-fi / fantasy progression story set in a corporate high-rise of the near-future. It’s a real stir fry. You can expect fights, mysteries, character development, some humor, a little drama, a little gore, tasteful profanity (yum!), and some gamelit elements mixed in.
The Setting: It’s 2045. The world now depends on the technology of a single corporation, the Company. Despite the advancements of the past twenty years in clean energy, antigravity, and medical treatments, there are even more wars, wider economic problems, and deeper societal rifts. Progress!
The Main Character: A young man willing to do whatever it takes (or so he thinks) to discover the truth. I look forward to reader feedback on which way to take the story when the MC has to make difficult, life-altering decisions.
About me: First-time writer, long-time corporate shark. I enjoy lampooning American business culture. Immensely. IYKYK.
Release Schedule: Weekly. If I'm able to write more, I'll publish more :)
