But most exciting of all, Manhattan is literally inside a Tower with 1000 floors. There’s also a really advanced transportation system of hovers, autocars and trains that can travel from Manhattan to Paris in 3 hours, under the Atlantic. There was an incredible communication system where people wear a digital display as contacts… if they can afford it.
There were so many wonderful inventions that I wanted to have or try out, and I’m so sad that I won’t be able to in my foreseeable future. There’s a lot of really advanced technology but it wasn’t so farfetched that I couldn’t imagine everything actually existing. The novel is set in the near future in the 22nd century. The standout aspect of this novel is definitely the world that Katharine McGee has created. I loved this book so much more than I expected to! I have to admit that this was first and foremost a cover-buy (I could go on a 10 minute ramble about why this cover is the sexiest thing I’ve ever seen, so don’t get me started) but I enjoyed the writing, the world and the story in The Thousandth Floor so much!
