In Metropolis, the gleaming city of tomorrow, the dream of the great American city has been achieved.

Henry Thompson has dedicated his life to improving America’s infrastructure as a proud employee of the United States Municipal Survey. So when the agency comes under attack, he dutifully accepts his unexpected mission to visit Metropolis looking for answers. But his plans to investigate quietly, quickly, and carefully are interrupted by his new partner: a day-drinking know-it-all named Owen, who also turns out to be the projected embodiment of the agency’s supercomputer.
Soon, Henry and Owen are fighting to save not only their own lives and those of the city’s millions of inhabitants, but also the soul of Metropolis. is a thrilling, funny, and touching adventure story, a tour de force of imagination that trenchantly explores our relationships to the cities around us and the technologies guiding us into the future.
