Now, he's stuck on a backwater moon base with his only friend, Gloria, watching every shuttle in the hope Flynn will be on it. \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e After an inexplicable encounter with a strange, euphoric being, Mitch and Gloria find themselves dishonourably discharged, and stuck with no plans and no future in a USA rapidly sliding into fascism. There's nothing for it but to move to Los Angeles to chase their dreams, and find their people in the discos of the city. \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e But when Flynn crashes back into their lives, claiming to be the host for an emissary of a utopian civilization approaching Earth, he offers Mitch the power to protect himself and friends across the queer community, so they never have to live in the shadows or face oppression again. \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e With the world on the brink of cataclysm, and Mitch and his friends being squeezed out of every space, it's down to this community of disco-loving outcasts to stand up for what is beautiful and right.","brand":"Unity Books","offers":[{"title":"Disco at the End of the World","offer_id":46479974138053,"sku":null,"price":29.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0625\/6679\/3413\/files\/978-1-83541-419-4.jpg?v=1782965565","url":"https:\/\/unitybooks.myshopify.com\/products\/disco-at-the-end-of-the-world","provider":"Unity Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
