Glasshouse

<div><p>When Robin wakes up in a clinic with most of his memories missing, it doesn€t take him long to discover that someone is trying to kill him. It€s the twenty-seventh century, when interstellar travel is by teleport gate and conflicts are fought by network worms that censor refugees€ personalities and target historians. The civil war is over and Robin has been demobilized, but someone wants him out of the picture because of something his earlier self knew.</p> <p>On the run from a ruthless pursuer and searching for a place to hide, he volunteers to participate in a unique experimental polity, the Glasshouse, constructed to simulate a pre-accelerated culture. Participants are assigned anonymized identities: It looks like the ideal hiding place for a posthuman on the run. But in this escape-proof environment, Robin will undergo an even more radical change, placing him at the mercy of the experimenters€"and at the mercy of his own unbalanced psyche...</p> </div>
