A tale of gods and humans - trying to live together by the principles of Plato's Republic. Featuring an extraordinary cast that includes giant robots, Athene, Apollo, and Socrates himself, The Just City is a whimsical, philosophical novel about love, life, choice and being mortal.

''Here in the Just City you will become your best selves. You will learn and grow and strive to be excellent.''

One day, in a moment of philosophical puckishness, the time-travelling goddess Pallas Athene decides to put Plato to the test and create the Just City. She locates the City on a Mediterranean island and populates it with over ten thousand children and a few hundred adults from all eras of history . . . along with some handy robots from the far human future.

Meanwhile, Apollo - stunned by the realization that there are things that human beings understand better than he does - has decided to become a mortal child, head to Athene''s City and see what all the fuss is about.

Then Socrates arrives, and starts asking troublesome questions.

What happens next is a tale only the brilliant Jo Walton could tell.
