Over Pluto is the darkly comic tale of a young man from Mercury embarking to find purpose in his life. While the world continues to degrade him, he soon becomes a hero in his own eyes as he soon loses empathy with all of society. The story has no real protagonist, no real villain, and no real lessons, but is instead a character study on a misguided juvenile and his descent into moral dedgrigation. This dramatic and darkly comic tale bends the science fiction genre's expectations and creates a gripping narrative that binds the reader in. The web of emotions the main character contains makes him one of the great unreliable narrators, as well as eliciting audience relations all over the board. Without the baggage of expectations, Over Pluto is able to be both a vicious satire of modern society and a loving dedication to independent art.
This is the first novel by author Michael Koch and shows his blending of modern science fiction and classical literature, all while telling a unique story about confused youth. He takes a smart, cutting look at the mindset promoting isolation all while insulting it with his hyperbolic storylines. His writing perfectly balances the sophistication of classic literature with camp, creating a unique voice that delicately rips apart expectations to create a work of art all his own.
