Book Description
In Vancouver, 2036, people are tired of the rain. They're willing to give up a lot for guaranteed sunshine, a life free of crime and disease. A life that ends when you want it to, not when 'your time has come'. Those who don't buy in - the poor, old and paranoid - watch as their family, friends and jobs leave the city. They watch as the latest in technology, Self, changes everything - not just the world, but humanity itself. On the bright side, rents have dropped. And in some unexpected ways, resistance is growing... A gripping novel from the acclaimed author of Angry Young Spaceman.

2.0 out of 5 stars Witty But a Little Clueless, 26 Jan 2008
By Ford Ka (Planet Earth) - See all my reviews
If you are afraid of virtual reality which will take over our world, you may get some food for thought in this novel. Munroe presents a world in 2036 when everyone wants to get transferred to virtual reality Frisco (ex San Francisco sadly destroyed by an earthquake) leaving their bodies behind. Munroe has some interesting ideas but he apparently likes them so much that instead of moving the plot forward dwells on them for far too long. In effect they don't really come together to make a real novel.
