Story4.5 out of 5 stars 576
The Los Angeles Times headline screamed: Rocket Scientist Killed in Pasadena Explosion. The man known as Jack Parsons, a maverick rocketeer who helped transform a derided sci-fi plotline into actuality, was at first mourned as a scientific prodigy. But reporters soon uncovered a more shocking story: Parsons had been a devotee of the city’s occult scene.

What if all brain disorders were treatable? Few would lament the passing of dementia or autism, but what if the twisted mind of a sex offender or murderer could be cured, too? Or how about a terrorist or maybe a political extremist? What if we could all be "corrected"? Welcome to the Condition: The Complete Trilogy, a series of near-future fiction novels on the cusp of becoming a frightening reality.

there is no way to effectively encapsulate this story into a few words. dystopian. speculative. philosophical. political commentary. Just when you think you have a handle on it there are new twists and turns.
the narrator was well chosen and compares favorably to the best in the business.
