Description

Robert Gu, a renowned poet in his youth, awakens to find that the world has changed beyond recognition. A medical miracle has restored his faculties, but with it comes a new reality: one where technology seamlessly blends with everyday life. As he struggles to adapt, he becomes embroiled in a conspiracy that threatens global domination. In this gripping science-fiction thriller, Vernor Vinge explores the intersection of humanity and technology. Robert's journey is a poignant reminder that knowledge can be both a blessing and a curse. With his granddaughter Miri as a guide, he must navigate a world where information is power, and the boundaries between reality and virtuality are increasingly blurred. As Robert begins to retrain alongside other older individuals, he unwittingly becomes part of a sinister plot to harness technology for control. Can he find his place in this new world, or will the very tools meant to enhance his life become his downfall?
