Review: What if corporates take over the world? - The world has succumbed to global warming and life outside is rough. Enter Cloud (read Evil desertcart), a company which builds large cities called MotherClouds which offer jobs,housing,food to people. Paxton, a former prison guard and Zinnia, a school teacher join Cloud as they have no other choice. The story revolves around both these people and their intentions of joining Cloud. All the employees of Cloud are forced to wear smart watches called CloudBands which help them in various day to day activities as well as help Cloud track their employees. If an employee even wastes a single minute while working, the watch knows it and decreases their star rating which is a scale of measuring an employee's efficiency. At one point in the story, one of the main characters is told not to utter the word 'union' because if it falls into the wrong ears, they may get fired. Rob Hart has done a great job in exposing what's wrong with the world right now. At a time when the world needs all the help it can get, corporate companies like desertcart are greedy for more wealth in exchange for technologies that can help people. The writing style is great. The story is told in three different perspectives, namely Paxton, Zinnia and Gibson Wells who's the CEO of Cloud. The story seems to be dragged a bit in the middle but the ending is absolutely amazing. Rob Hart makes a strong, fearless statement as to why the world's failing due to these large corporate conglomerates. The world building is really great and the characters are well fleshed out. I seriously fear that the world might come to this stage at some point of time where governments fail and corporates like desertcart take over the world. Woudl recommend this book to everyone.
