All proceeds to this meeting are going to Macmillan Cancer Support.
In Synners, the line between technology and humanity is hopelessly slim. To be a Synner is to join the online hardcore, an outlaw band of hackers, simulation pirates, and reality synthesizers hooked on artificial reality and virtual space. Now you can change yourself to suit the machines – all it costs you is your freedom, and your humanity. Synners shows us a world perilously close to our own. A constant stream of new technology spawns new crime before it hits the streets, and the human mind and the external landscape have fused to the point where any encounter with “reality” is incidental. Equal parts thrill-ride and cautionary tale, this classic novel by the Queen of Cyberpunk offers us a terrifying glimpse into the future of our race.
Due to the recent and unfortunate reappearance of Pat Cadigan’s cancer the ScienceFictionBookClub.org are very happy to help raise proceeds for Macmillan Cancer Support. Good luck Pat!
Every penny of all dues paid to this meeting is being donated to Macmillan Cancer Care, who do amazing work supporting and caring for people with cancer and their families. The organiser, Your Glorious Leader ®, will be making up the PayPal Dues.
