The Ten Percent Thief

The Ten Percent Thief

Welcome to Apex City, formerly Bangalore. Technology is the key to survival, productivity is power, and success is the only goal in life. Everything is decided by the mathematically perfect Bell Curve; the system has no flaws, and cannot be questioned. Until a single daring theft sets events in motion that will change the city forever...



Nothing has happened. Not yet, anyway. This is how all things begin.

Welcome to Apex City, formerly Bangalore, where everything is decided by the mathematically perfect Bell Curve.

With the right image, values and opinions, you can ascend to the glittering heights of the Twenty Percent – the Virtual elite – and have the world at your feet. Otherwise you risk falling to the precarious Ten Percent, and deportation to the ranks of the Analogs, with no access to electricity, running water or even humanity.

The system has no flaws. Until the elusive “Ten Percent Thief” steals a single jacaranda seed from the Virtual city and plants a revolution in the barren soil of the Analog world.

Previously published in South Asia only as Analog/Virtual, The Ten Percent Thief is a striking debut by a ferocious new talent.
