Acerca de este libro electrónico
"Intelligent, provocative and hard-edged" - Goodreads Reviewer
"Gwyneth Jones is always a fascinating read" - Goodreads Reviewer
Subs are fed and housed in space-saving underground accommodation - under the stern, loving care of the great machine systems, like VENTUR - designed to protect the surface of their planet. Some, however, are ungrateful, and refuse to know their place...
As a retired games creator, ALIC can't resist when Millie invites her to play a game that is wholly unique. A game from which she struggles to escape, and her life becomes entwined with the people around her as they strive for revolution.
First published in 1986, Escape Plans was lauded as an original feminist cyberpunk novel, one which pulls no punches in its exploration of humanity's relationships with computers, and our own flaws and follies.
