Shadow Prisons feels very far-out speculatively, but I don't think it is such a stretch to go from the Metaverse to allowing our entire reality to be mediated virtually, especially if it becomes really inconvenient to live any other way as she speculates. But it may be a little on-point, and it has a happy ending, which given where this starts I just don't see happening. Very much a tale of our times.
