--Hang out with the techno-savvy, social-media gypsies who form the new elite in the not-too-distant future.
--Ride a wild ribofunk express train into the badlands where a man's skin is not his own.
--Experience a counterfacutal World War II where victory is acheived by amazing rays.
--Vist a haunted Italian city where the Neolithic and the present live side-by-side, and a hero who falls in love with a goddess must battle her ancient foe.
