About the book: 2020 / Distant future. Humanity, spread throughout the universe, is engulfed in a Scientific-Biological Revolution, the basis of which is a symbiotic relationship between human consciousness and a computer directly connected to it, which is a thousand times greater than the simple summation of their capabilities. People are making rapid leaps forward in all areas of life, creating artificial assistants in which they install their own consciousness. The prospect of changing bodies looms before the powers that be. And most importantly, previously unreachable distant planets suddenly become available for plunder by the greedy and predatory Empire.
