War between the stars.
It was started by an AI, and few humans even knew there was a war at all. But now people are dying, not just robots and aliens—and the AI wants it to stop. But a war is easier to start than to stop, and the computer can't alter its course without outside help. When the Gnostic Control System searches for conspirators, it chooses its friends carefully...
A thought-provoking novel of the not-too-distant future, from the Nebula-nominated author of Eternity's End and The Chaos Chronicles.
REVIEWS:
"The story is meaty and satisfying. I enjoyed this one greatly." —Analog Science Fiction
"An absorbing, suspenseful novel of first contact and interstellar war. It's a complex book, requiring concentration from the reader, and is well worth the effort."—Aboriginal SF
"A lively dance of ideas—first contact, interstellar war, artificial intelligence, alien culture—and it moves at a rapid pace, from Earth through cyberspace to the Horsehead Nebula, and various points between. It's well-worth the trip ticket." —Roger Zelazny
