Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

From a stunning new voice in hard science fiction comes the thrilling story of one womans quest to wrest truth from chaos, love from violence, and reality from illusion in a post-human universe of emergent AIs, genetic constructs, and illegal wetware...

Spin State

UN Peacekeeper Major Catherine Li has made thirty-seven faster-than-light jumps in her lifetimeand has probably forgotten more than most people remember. But thats what backup hard drives are for. And Li should know; shes been hacking her memory for fifteen years in order to pass as human. But no memory upgrade can prepare Li for what she finds on Compsons World: a mining colony she once called home and to which she is sent after a botched raid puts her on the bad side of the powers that be. A dead physicist who just happens to be her cloned twin. A missing dataset that could change the interstellar balance of power and turn a cold war hot. And a mining “accident” that is starting to look more and more like murder...

Suddenly Li is chasing a killer in an alien world miles underground where everyone has a secret. And one wrong turn in streamspace, one misstep in the dark alleys of blackmarket tech and interstellar espionage, one risky hookup with an AI could literally blow her mind.

Synopsis:

Nominated for the 2003 Philip K. Dick Award, this "highly atmospheric debut" ("Publishers Weekly") from a stunning new voice in science fiction deftly mixes murder, politics, and cyber-romance.
