About TechLess: A Global Thriller

A businessman's Genius Vision. A society's great addiction. A President's agonizing decision. TechLess is a political, corporate, and oil thriller, as well an epic adventure exploring the future of the shale oil boom. It tells a tale of the convergence of corporatism, the centralization of power, and modern technology reliance, where corporate government is both enabled and embraced. This story is rich with business scandal, government conspiracy, propaganda, greed, corruption, and cover-ups—and just a hint of graphic violence—but you will not find any explosions, shootouts, car chases, profanity, or sex. The consensus is that tech is the future, but what if the future is tech-less? What would you do without it? Perhaps the better question is whether tech will save us, kills us, or a little bit of both. This is a journey into a moral, ethical, and political gray area, offering a futuristic reflection of the current era where technology, corporate prosecutorial immunity, and government power are simultaneously on the steady rise. Tech is fundamentally changing the human experience, and this story considers where this excessive reliance, ever-growing big businesses, and relentless government power consolidation are taking the world. What happens if these trajectories go unchanged, become even further intertwined, and begin to stalk us? Will tech save us, kill us, or a little bit of both? Journey into the moral ethical and political gray. There is some good, some bad, but most often, the painfully indecipherable prevails.
