About: In the twenty-third century, Herb, a young entrepreneur, returns to the remote planet on which he has been furtively trying to build a city, only to find it a swarming nightmare of self-replicating machinery, in an imaginative speculative novel that explores a future era of conflict between humankind and the artificial intelligences and cities and planets it has carelessly fabricated.
