En "Shanghai 3", Francisco Angulo de Lafuente nos sumerge en un futuro distópico que desafía nuestras percepciones de la realidad y explora las consecuencias de un mundo dominado por corporaciones y tecnología avanzada. Ambientada en el año 2076, esta novela cyberpunk nos transporta a una colonia minera en Europa, una de las lunas de Júpiter, donde la línea entre lo humano y lo artificial se desdibuja en un juego de espejos y manipulaciones.
El protagonista, un mecánico de naves espaciales interpretado con la imagen mental de un Harrison Marcus Carter de mediana edad, se convierte en nuestro guía a través de este mundo complejo y estratificado. Su lucha por comprender su propia identidad y realidad refleja las preguntas fundamentales que la novela plantea sobre la naturaleza de la conciencia y la autenticidad de nuestras experiencias.
Angulo de Lafuente teje hábilmente una trama que combina elementos de thriller, ciencia ficción dura y crítica social. La introducción de Olivia Dunne como un personaje enigmático añade capas de intriga y romance a la narrativa, mientras que las revelaciones sobre la verdadera naturaleza de la colonia y sus habitantes mantienen al lector en constante estado de anticipación.
Lo que hace que "Shanghai 3" destaque en el género cyberpunk es su exploración matizada de temas como la explotación laboral, la manipulación de la memoria y la resistencia contra sistemas opresivos. El autor no se contenta con presentar un futuro simplemente distópico, sino que nos invita a reflexionar sobre las complejidades éticas y filosóficas de un mundo donde la realidad puede ser programada y la identidad se convierte en un concepto fluido.
La prosa de Angulo de Lafuente es ágil y evocadora, pintando vívidamente los paisajes alienígenas de Europa y la claustrofóbica atmósfera de Shanghai 3. Su habilidad para equilibrar la acción trepidante con momentos de introspección profunda mantiene la narrativa en un ritmo cautivador.

Francisco Angulo
Madrid, 1976
Enthusiast of fantasy cinema and literature and a lifelong fan of Isaac Asimov and Stephen King, Angulo starts his literary career by submitting short stories to different contests. At 17 he finishes his first book - a collection of poems - and tries to publish it. Far from feeling intimidated by the discouraging responses from publishers, he decides to push ahead and tries even harder.
In 2006 he published his first novel "The Relic", a science fiction tale that was received with very positive reviews. In 2008 he presented "Ecofa" an essay on biofuels, whereAngulorecounts his experiences in the research project he works on. In 2009 he published "Kira and the Ice Storm".A difficultbut very productive year, in2010 he completed "Eco-fuel-FA", a science book in English. He also worked on several literary projects: "The Best of 2009-2010", "The Legend of Tarazashi 2009-2010", "The Sniffer 2010", "Destination Havana 2010-2011" and "Company No.12".
He currently works as director of research at the Ecofa project. Angulo is the developer of the first 2nd generation biofuel obtained from organic waste fed bacteria. He specialises in environmental issues and science-fiction novels.
His expertise in the scientific field is reflected in the innovations and technological advances he talks about in his books, almost prophesying what lies ahead, as Jules Verne didin his time.
