David Marusek
Feed on steroids. In this world created by Marusek, nanotechnology and biotechnology were first weaponized and then went rogue. The result is that individual cities are all contained in protective spheres that filter out the nano and bio threats. We also get nanotech integrated into your body for enhancement and communication. Your personal valet (an artificial intelligence made of some bio-goo) communicates directly with you and monitors your well being. Clones are pervasive and job specific. So this is a world where technology has taken humans to amazing new capabilities, and humans have to tread lightly because of the unintended consequences. In this fabulous world, Marusek sets upon us with a crime thriller. An assassination, a kidnapping, political/corporate intrigue, and good old fashioned detective work. A nice juxtaposition of a crazy future and recognizable forms.
