Review from The Ministry for the Future →
Message in the first chapter: it takes a really bad,, dramatic event to get people’s attention. The most appealing idea: the creation of a digital currency structured to encourage investment in a solution to the problem, and scaleable both up to efforts on a global scale and down to the village or personal level.

Great story that shows how wrong things can go in the criminal justice system. Also the great people that fight for justice.

This anthology does not disappoint. Each one develops their characters and takes the listener on a journey through the System universe.
