KlappentextHalting State [is] a near-future story that is at once over-the-top and compellingly believable. Vernor Vinge, author of Rainbows Endÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿ
ÿÿÿÿÿÿ
In the year 2018, Sergeant Sue Smith of the Edinburgh constabulary is called in on a special case. A daring bank robbery has taken place at Hayek Associates a dot-com start-up company that s just floated onto the London stock exchange. But this crime may be a bit beyond Smith s expertise.ÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿ
ÿThe prime suspects are a band of marauding orcs with a dragon in tow for fire support. The bank is located within the virtual reality land of Avalon Four, and the robbery was supposed to be impossible. When word gets out, Hayek Associates and all its virtual economies are going to crash hard.ÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿ ÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿ
ÿFor Smith, the investigation seems pointless. But the deeper she digs, the bigger the case gets. There are powerful players both real and pixelated who are watching her every move. Because there is far more at stake than just some game-head s fantasy financial security
