Summary

In this horrifying science fiction novel, the dead walk the streets, resurrected by technology to become servants to the living. Resurrection, Inc. found a profitable way to do it: a microprocessor brain, a synthetic heart, artificial blood—and anyone with money could buy a Servant with no mind of its own, trained to obey any command. But for every Servant created, a living worker was out of a job, and suddenly the profits of Resurrection, Inc. became everyone else’s loss.  Some take to rioting in the streets, their rampages ruthlessly ended by heavily armed Enforcers, eager for the kill. Others join the ever-growing cult of Neo-Satanism, seeking Heaven in the depths of Hell.  Only one man tries to save the world. His name is Danal, and he is the last hope of the living. He is dead, but he remembers everything. “Anderson has become the literary equivalent of Quentin Tarantino.” —The Daily Rotation

    Lovecraftian themes abound in the tales of an intern at a madhouse and an illiterate madman. Slater, the madman whose unspeakable crimes led him to the madhouse, is continuously awakened in this story by surprisingly literate hallucinations of a glowing entity seeking revenge. Inspired by Slater’s uneducated background and the telepathic machine that he had made in his yesteryear, the intern delves deep into Joe Slater – who is receiving telepathic messages from a being of light. This being of light says that nothing can come from being shackled to human bodies, which causes Slater to die, the transmission to end, and the battle between good and evil to rage on.
