The Great Gambler

HARD SCI-FI takes on HIGH FINANCE at the black-edge of Wall Street... where capital emerges from human yearning and declares that it MUST GO ON.

THE ANALYST is a speculator in the ticker market, a picker of common stocks who makes a farcical bet and loses too much money… even the firm with the name on the door. The regular investors are no longer interested, so a new backer must be found – a continental gentleman named LEFEVRE.

Lefevre offers a generous salary, and full carry too. But his contract contains strange stipulations. Moreover, he insists on calling himself a quantitative, claiming he MANAGES HIS MONEY USING MATH ALONE. Lefevre’s methods have already made him a fortune. What use could the analyst be to a man like him?

“Michael Lewis meets China Mieville” in this radical work of SCI_FINANCE – part econ-blog con-theory, part boiler-room gas.

"Readers looking for thought-provoking speculative fiction will find this creatively courageous novel worth their time." - BlueInk

"Cerebral, experimental fiction... the descriptions and originality of the tale are distinctly artful." - Kirkus
