2125 the hibernator
It is not just a narrative; it’s a vision on the future. It challenges us to envision the world we are creating and to ponder the legacy we leave behind. Through its pages, we explore the profound impact of our decisions on the generations to come.
Join us as we journey into a future that is both unfamiliar and captivating, urging us to question and to dream of what lies ahead.
This novel is about that future.
It is the year 2125. Max Bloemendaal awakens from the Coma Superviviente—a century-long engineered hibernation that has kept him alive, barely older than when he went under. He opens his eyes to a world utterly transformed.
Humanity has endured a catastrophic century of wars, climate disasters, and pandemics. What remains is a future no one could have imagined. But for Max, one question burns brighter than all others: who was behind the disappearance of his wife, Felice Ricci—the brilliant physicist and fearless activist he lost a hundred years ago?
Blending a gripping personal quest with a sweeping vision of tomorrow, Fons Burger weaves a powerful speculative novel about survival, justice, and hope. Drawing on a lifetime of exploring solutions to humanity’s two greatest challenges—growing inequality and the destruction of our planet—he delivers a future thriller that feels disturbingly close.
