    About this ebook

    The prison system becomes unprofitable as drug related crimes cease completely, leaving the faltering wardens no choice but to adapt. They turn their prisons into human zoos where the inmates are the spectacle. Judiciporium Follows Alton Stide as his life is inexorably changed as he is thrust into the pageant, and Juliette, a drifter wandering through the dsytopic world who develops an inexplicable love for Alton. People clamber over one another to see the new exhibit suffer though an impossible existence punctuated by a pitiful warden, games against an enhanced demi-god, his rich never dying mother, and the plots of an acid riddled doctor. For Alton only two lights burn through the haze; Isiah, a young fellow inmate and Juliette, whose letters and promises keep him sane

      The sun is in its place, and in this place the sun is like no other I’ve ever seen. Yesterday, when they brought a man here, when he first felt the sun’s heat, he’d swooned; they had to carry and drag him into the cage. He hasn’t woken yet, I’m told
