Sly Doubt of Uranus: The History of a Lovable Asshole

Genre: Satirical Science Fiction


Yes. It’s about Uranus. All of it. Every single planet, moon, city, sea, and institution in this book is named after a part of the human body that proper society pretends doesn’t exist. You’re going to love it.

You’re also going to think about capitalism differently afterward. That’s the trap.

Sly Doubt of Uranus is the first-person memoir of Sly Doubt โ€” orphan, Ethereum Priest, journalist, resistance fighter, and self-described terrorist โ€” narrating his own history before his enemies can lie about it first.

Uranus is a planet whose crust contains Bloot โ€” the most valuable substance in the solar system. You would think this would make the Urani people fabulously wealthy. It does not. A Jovian monarchy controls the mines. Earth’s predatory capitalism controls the contracts. Sly finds this unacceptable.

For readers of Douglas Adams, Joseph Heller, and anyone who has ever suspected that the solar system is run by the same people who run Earth โ€” just with better real estate.
