<p>A nuanced story about artificial intelligence and digital immortality, <i>Freenet</i> plunges readers into the far future, when humans have closed distances in time and space through wormhole tunnels between interplanetary colonies. Consciousness has been digitized and cybersouls uploaded to a near-omniscient data matrix in a world where information is currency and the truth belongs to whoever has the most bandwidth.</i>

<p>When Simara Ying crash-lands on the desert planet Bali, she finds herself trapped in a primitive cave-dwelling culture with no social network for support. Her native rescuer, Zen Valda, is yanked into a new universe of complications he can scarcely grasp and into an infinite network of data he never knew existed. When brash V-net anchorman Roni Hendrik starts investigating how Simara became the subject of an interplanetary manhunt, he finds a dangerous emergence in the network that threatens all human life.</p>

<p><i>Freenet</i> is an exciting new novel about the power of information, as well as the strength of love, in a post-digital age.</p>
