| This novel, which has not received many good reviews and appears only to have been published in Britain, involves a math professor who is a terrorist for environmentalist causes. (That the author chose to make him a mathematician could be due to Ted Kaczynski, unfortunately a stereotypical mathematician to many authors). He intends to enact a plan code-named ``Dear Abbey'' (inspired by The Monkey Wrench Gang), but does not have the necessary mathematics. Consequently, he travels to the distant future to find it and along the way has some warm, fuzzy experiences that change his mind. |

Where are the new works of mathematical fiction?: As you can see from this chronological listing, this database includes many works of mathematical fiction for each year from 1990 to 2025. Strangely, only two are listed for 2026, so far. Either less mathematical fiction is being published than in previous years or I'm just having more trouble finding it. If you know of any works of fiction that should be added to this list, especially recently published ones, please let me know. (Keep in mind that I do not include self-published works or children's fiction that just covers elementary mathematical concepts.) Thanks!
