The precious ore coltan can be found in every cell phone and computer on earth. And in a small East African country, both the Black population and the land are exploited for this precious resource—the people as a source of cheap, expendable labor; the land as a mining site and international dumping ground for defunct technology.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYet from the rubble, creativity and rebellion rise. An encounter between a miner and an otherworldly stranger named Neptune results in the birth of a hacker named MartyrLoserKing, and the launch of a global cyberattack. Their plan will rock the world to its foundations, upend centuries of institutional abuse, and, perhaps, usher in a new age of understanding.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSteeped in mythology and history and inspired by present-day events, this cyberpunk fable from visionary poet, musician, and director Saul Williams is both a cautionary tale and a hopeful vision of the future.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"MPS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52933010784565,"sku":null,"price":34.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0260\/3030\/9430\/files\/9781626721999.jpg?v=1779918301","url":"https:\/\/shop.floatingworldcomics.com\/products\/martyr-loser-king-gn","provider":"Floating World Comics","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
