Publisher's summary
Cloud isn’t just a place to work. It’s a place to live. And when you’re here, you’ll never want to leave.
“On the surface, The Warehouse is a thrilling story of corporate espionage at the highest level, but dig a little deeper and you’ll find a terrifying cautionary tale of the nightmare world we are making for ourselves.” (Blake Crouch, New York Times best-selling author of Dark Matter)
Film rights sold to Imagine Entertainment for director Ron Howard!
Named One of the Best Books of the Year by Financial Times • Real Simple • Kirkus Reviews
Paxton never thought he’d be working for Cloud, the giant tech company that’s eaten much of the American economy. Much less that he’d be moving into one of the company’s sprawling live-work facilities.
But compared to what’s left outside, Cloud’s bland chainstore life of gleaming entertainment halls, open-plan offices, and vast warehouses...well, it doesn’t seem so bad. It’s more than anyone else is offering.
Zinnia never thought she’d be infiltrating Cloud. But now she’s undercover, inside the walls, risking it all to ferret out the company’s darkest secrets. And Paxton, with his ordinary little hopes and fears? He just might make the perfect pawn. If she can bear to sacrifice him.
As the truth about Cloud unfolds, Zinnia must gamble everything on a desperate scheme - one that risks both their lives, even as it forces Paxton to question everything about the world he’s so carefully assembled here.
Together, they’ll learn just how far the company will go...to make the world a better place.
Set in the confines of a corporate panopticon that’s at once brilliantly imagined and terrifyingly real, The Warehouse is a near-future thriller about what happens when Big Brother meets Big Business - and who will pay the ultimate price.
Advance praise for The Warehouse
“A fun, fast-paced read [that] walks a fine line between a near-future thriller and a smart satire...makes you wonder if we’re already too far into a disastrous future, or if there’s still some hope for humanity.” (NPR)
“Holy hell, The Warehouse is our future, isn’t it? Imagine that one day we screw up the world and our country so damn bad that we all have to live where we work in what amounts to a modern variant on indentured servitude, and then layer on top of that a bleeding-edge thriller set inside a massively autocratic corporate entity, and you still haven’t seen just how sharp, or scary, this book is.... Taut, tense, and masterful.” (Chuck Wendig)
“Wildly imaginative yet terrifyingly real, The Warehouse is both a gripping thriller and an alarming glimpse into what could soon be our future.” (Riley Sager, New York Times best-selling author of Lock Every Door)

In the near future, advances in medicine and quantum computing make human cloning a reality. For the wealthy, cheating death is the ultimate luxury. To anticloning militants, it’s an abomination against nature. For young Constance “Con” D’Arcy, who was gifted her own clone by her late aunt, it’s terrifying. After a routine monthly upload of her consciousness - stored for that inevitable transition - something goes wrong. When Con wakes up in the clinic, it’s eighteen months later. Her recent memories are missing. Her original, she’s told, is dead.

Bubblegum is set in an alternate present-day world in which the internet does not exist and has never existed. Rather, a wholly different species of interactive technology - a "flesh-and-bone robot" called the Curio - has dominated both the market and the cultural imagination since the late 1980s. Belt Magnet, who as a boy in greater Chicago became one of the lucky first adopters of a Curio, is now writing his memoir, and through it we follow a singular man out of sync with the harsh realities of a world he feels alien to but must find a way to live in.

In High Earth, digital entertainment is everything. Shows. Virtual worlds. Simulations - there’s something for everybody in a city where working for a living has been rendered obsolete by technological advancements. Even a short walk outside to visit with others is no longer necessary. Just load into the network and you can be with anyone, anywhere. For Asher Reinhart, nothing compares to Ignis; a live reality show that pushes human beings to their very extremes.

In western Pennsylvania, 1997, she is assigned to solve the murder of a Navy SEAL's family - and to locate his vanished teenage daughter. Though she can't share the information with conventional law enforcement, Moss discovers that the missing SEAL was an astronaut aboard the spaceship USS Libra - a ship assumed lost to the currents of Deep Time.

Before, the average person spoke 16,000 words a day, but now women only have 100 to make themselves heard. But this is not the end. For herself, her daughter, and every woman silenced, Jean will reclaim her voice.

Arkady and Boris Strugatsky are widely considered the greatest of Russian science fiction masters, yet the novel they worked hardest on, the one that was their own favorite and that listeners worldwide have acclaimed their magnum opus, has never before been published in English. The Doomed City was so politically risky that the Strugatskys kept its existence a secret even from their closest friends for 16 years. It was only published in Russia during perestroika in the late 1980s, the last of their works to see publication.

So while his new home isn’t perfect, it’s livable. The rent is low, the property managers are friendly, and the odd little mysteries don’t nag at him too much. At least, not until he meets Mandy, his neighbor across the hall, and notices something unusual about her apartment. And Xela’s apartment. And Tim’s. And Veek’s.

Critic reviews
"A compelling and intriguing thriller that holds up a black mirror to our own frightening state of affairs.... [Hart’s] tapped a real vein of the zeitgeist with this stand-alone thriller about the future of work that reads like a combination of Dave Eggers’ tech nightmare, The Circle, the public’s basic impression of an Amazon fulfillment center, and Parzival’s infiltration of IOI in Ready Player One. A hell of a prosecution of modern commerce and the nature of work, all contained in the matrix of a Cory Doctorow-esque postmodern thriller that might not turn out the way you hoped. Part video game, part Sinclair Lewis, part Michael Crichton; it adds up to a terrific puzzle.” (Kirkus Reviews, starred review)
“What if the totalitarian regime controlling people’s lives was a mega-corporation rather than a fascist government? That’s the conceit of this intelligent Orwellian thriller by Hart, who imagines an all-too-plausible near-future.... Hart’s detail-oriented world- building, which credibly extrapolates from the Trump administration’s antiregulatory agenda, makes this cautionary tale memorable and powerful. This promises to be Hart’s breakout book.” (Publishers Weekly, starred review)
“An enjoyable mystery that’s hard to put down... Highly recommended for dystopian fiction fans.” (Library Journal,starred review)

Well done, but...
The author did a great job of setting the scene and creating a dystopian future. But..., I wish he had taken more chances. Ultimately it's a predictable story flow that doesn't really surprise the reader. Every story needs a conflict, but the conflicts hear are somewhat mild. I wish the story could have been bigger. Still, I enjoyed it. Unlike many books I have from Audible, I won't listen to it again, which is a shame.

We are quickly heading towards the nightmare reality depicted in this story. Many are fighting to make this reality come faster. Some are fighting to stop it. But it seems inevitable. Every day our world becomes more and more like the "cloud burger" described in this book... juicy and delicious, as long as you don't know the secret.

Interesting read
Compares today and a potential possible future if people don't pay attention or stand up to monopolies in business world under the guise of helping. Pay attention when smaller companies are forced to close. Viva la Revolucion.

A well presented narration of a beautifully written utopian novel.
I did not want to put it down.

Cloud
Imagine a near future where everything is run by Amazon, or a company a lot like it, called Cloud by Rob Hart in The Warehouse. If you've followed some of the controversies that plague Amazon, especially its employment practices, this book takes those issues to scary dystopian degrees.
I have such a backlog in my Audible library that I rarely get a book that I don't actively want to read/listen to. I took a chance on The Warehouse during a recent BOGO sale, knowing nothing about it or its author, and am happy I did. This was an addictive read that drew me in from the start and didn't let go until the ambiguous ending.
Good characters, effective world building, well structured, and highly relevant. I'm ready to read more Hart and, contrary to my usual attitude, I'm hoping for a sequel within this world. BTW I'm a fan of Amazon and Bezos, who I met briefly in the early 90s before Amazon took off, although I do recognize some of their shortcomings.
The only downside is the narration. Not bad, but it never works for me when speaking in a near whisper is a stand in for earnestness -- most of us listen in a car or through ear buds, we need to be able to hear what you're saying.

Modern dystopia ftw
Well written cautionary tale putting a cheerful, IoT enabled, ‘surveillance capitalist’ face on big brother.
We will take your freedom while supplying everything else you want. Top notch performance with distinct character voices! could always tell who was speaking.

Freedom is yours until you give it up
A well-told story of how one man, ruling over one company, can make other businesses virtually obsolete. It goes beyond parody and toward prediction of what happens behind the scenes in huge, warehouse-based enterprises. The intrigue and subplots make this a good listening or reading experience.
