" From the award-winning, bestselling author of The Circle  
comes an exciting new follow-up. When the world's largest  
search engine/social media company, The Circle, merges with the  
planet's dominant e-commerce site, it creates the richest and  
most dangerous-and, oddly enough, most beloved-monopoly ever  
known: The Every.

" Delaney Wells is an unlikely new hire. A former forest ranger
and unwavering tech skeptic, she charms her way into an entry-
level job with one goal in mind: to take down the company from
within. With her compatriot, the not-at-all-ambitious Wes
Kavakian, they look for the company's weaknesses, hoping to
free humanity from all-encompassing surveillance and the emoji-
driven infantilization of the species.

" But does anyone want what Delaney is fighting to save? Does
humanity truly want to be free? Studded with unforgettable
characters and lacerating set pieces, The Every blends satire
and terror, while keeping the reader in breathless suspense
about the fate of the company-and the human animal.
