THE THOUSAND YEAR BEACH giveaway contest

By Nick Mamatas June 11, 2018

We are back, with our latest title, TOBI Hirotaka's The Thousand Year Beach! A story of a long-abandoned virtual reality environment—think something like a TinyMUD or Second Life, but utterly immersive—facing an invasion from inexplicable outside forces, the book is already getting a bit of a buzz. Subscription box Page Habit has selected The Thousand Year Beach as its June science fiction title and we're looking to help spread the word further with one of our giveaway contests!



You may know the drill by now: respond to this post with a little essay, anecdote, or poem about your favorite book, comic, film, or videogame that focuses on Virtual Reality. Write it up in English, Japanese, Spanish, German, Chinese, or Greek—we ship anywhere! (But we don't ready every language, just those listed.) On Friday we'll pick the four answers we like best and ship out the copies.

Are you ready for some mind-blowing SF that is also a literal "beach book"? Get to commenting!
