Years from now, in 2114 technology has obviously increased no bounds making people lazier and also taking the real meaning out of everything.
Same way the Oxford library in future has lost all its meaning when the books in the book stores are replaced with super intelligent gadgets which have even made our hand's job useless with its mind reading capacity.
This story is about how an interior designer and a band drummer come together to bring back the musty smelling books and meaning to that one place which hold so much meaning to them. The old school antique bookshop.

Two hundred years later, when the atmosphere has finished freezing onto the surface, explorers from the last refuge of humanity venture out to see what's become of their world. Things looks bleak. Mankind faces a future of huddling in whatever warm refuges it can make for itself until the Earth's core goes cold, but then a discovery is made. An opportunity exists for mankind to leave the planet and find its destiny among the stars, but to do so requires an all or nothing gamble and losing would mean the end of the human race. Some want to take the gamble. Others don't, and so conflict and violence breaks out as the survey teams explore a planet transformed out of all recognition...Complete
