It’s June 2056 and the Global Society recruits four men to negotiate a deal with an eccentric counterpart. The strange circumstances force them to take on the challenge without knowing who they’re dealing with or what they’re supposed to achieve, so everything becomes an exercise in improvisation.

The Ugly Box is book number one in the Nerdology series. It’s a 110k word science fiction novel in which most of the action plays out in virtual reality. It’s full of numbers, surreal events and convoluted ideas, so if you like that, this book is for you.

Here are three hard core questions for people who have already read the book:

Q.UB#1:
Which prime number is the oddest of them all?
Q.UB#2:
Why were the trees collected in groups of eight?
Q.UB#3:
If this story had a horse in it, what color would it be and how many letters would it have in its name?
