Why I Chose 2096 for My Dystopian Science Fiction Trilogy - David Somerfleck | Science Fiction Author

Why 2096? The year is not arbitrary — it is load-bearing. A personal essay on the distance, symbolism, and storytelling logic that made 2096 the only possible home for the Shards of a Shattered Sky trilogy.

Book #2 in my banned books series:
The Handmaid’s Tale

Some stories are banned because they’re inappropriate.
Others are banned because they’re too honest.

This one?
It forces you to sit with uncomfortable questions about power, control, and autonomy.

And that’s exactly why I’m reading it.
