With nothing left to lose, they make one final throw of the dice: a cross-country journey in search of sanctuary. But in these Times of Malthus, will anywhere be safe?

Is total surveillance the answer?The Times of Malthus is the prequel to 2089, making it the third in the audiopt series of novels by Miles M Hudson. Also in this series is The Mind's Eye.
