Publisher's Synopsis
Leaves of Sand is a collection of stories about "the Badge" a social network that threatens humanity's very existence as we know it. In the dystopian world Patrick Nickles creates, people wear masks because "the Badge" captures everything and everyone in it. In Book 1, an underground movement emerges to free the world from the oppression of "the Badge." Families are tested; love is questioned; and governments are challenged. In a world that exists only behind glass, who do we see when we look in a mirror? Who do others see when they see our reflections? Leaves of Grass explores these questions and more in a thrilling and powerful collection that has great relevance for today's world.
