Book Description Octavo, boards. First edition. QUARANTINE "effectively, and literally, encapsulates a near-future private-eye plot, of the sort familiar to readers of cyberpunk, within a solar system now enclosed by a vast enigmatic bubble that hides the stars. The unfoldings of the plot, and of its implications about human identity in a world (or complex of parallel worlds) controllable at the quantum level through computer-augmented brain functions, is extremely intricate." - John Clute and others, SFE (online). The author's first SF novel. Pulpy text paper just a bit tanned, a fine copy in fine dust jacket. (#156995). Seller Inventory # 156995
