Editorial Reviews

Product Description

In New Byanzt, Citizens go about their business, protected from age and injury by Medical Conversion technology that grants them practical immortality. The technology is coveted, and the secret of its production long-lost. Slumrats outside the city fight for the crumbs from the City's table while searching for the technology they believe the Citizens still hold, and the Funkar Enclave outside casts the disapproving glare of Gord's light over Citizen abomination and slumrat disbeliever alike.

When a Citizen inadvertently stumbles on a natural analogue for the Medical Conversion technology, a centuries-old balance shifts. Suddenly New Byanzt and its surroundings are the battleground for Citizens desperate to maintain the status quo, slumrats who suddenly see a chance to do more than live and die in squalor, and the Funkar zealots who are determined to eradicate the unnatural heresy in whatever form they find it.

More About the Author

I'm a writer, musician, programmer, artist, language fiend, and general student of life. I've been writing in various formats ever since I was a child, and have completed and published a variety of stories, poems, and novels.

I'm a fan of "big ideas" in the science fiction tradition, so much of my work falls into that category, but I have also written, edited, and blogged both formally and informally in categories ranging from sociological compilations to psychedelic fantasy and poetry.

I have an academic background in fine arts and sociology. I'm a firm believer in learning with the body as well as the mind, so I enjoy hiking, running, and studying martial arts when I'm not in front of a laptop creating something. I'm also a caffeine and chocolate addict, and a huge fan (and sometime producer) of trance and other electronica.
