Patrick Finegan is pleased to announce the release of his new novel, Toys in Babylon: A Language App Parody and Whodunnit, a riotously clever satire and murder mystery. This story takes readers on a madcap journey through the inner workings—and hilarious unraveling—of a wildly successful language-learning app.
When the mascot and spokes-bear of a popular language app is found dead, chaos ensues. Was the culprit an ambitious executive, a disillusioned employee, a jilted lover, or perhaps one of the app’s cartoon instructors—a charmingly animated AI with more intelligence than expected? Toys in Babylon is a satirical look at the intersection of technology, corporate ambition, and human folly, inspired by a chain novel prompt on a language app fan site. Originally serialized online, the story has been expanded into a definitive novel available in both English and German.
Perfect for anyone who has ever learned a new language alongside quirky cartoon characters or questioned the rise of AI, Toys in Babylon delivers biting humor, compelling mystery, and a satirical edge that will resonate with fans of modern tech culture.
