Inside the firewall the city is alive. Buildings breathe, cars attack, angels patrol, and hyperintelligent pets run wild in the streets. With unbridled invention and breakneck adventure, Hannu Rajaniemi is on the cutting-edge of science fiction. His postapocalyptic, postcyberpunk, and posthuman tales are full of exhilarating energy and unpredictable optimism. How will human nature react when the only limit to desire is creativity? When the distinction between humans and gods is as small as nanomachines--or as large as the universe? Whether the next big step in technology is 3D printing, genetic alteration, or unlimited space travel, Rajaniemi writes about what happens after.

With his infectious love of storytelling in all its forms, his rich characterisation and his unrivalled grasp of thrillingly bizarre cutting-edge science, Hannu Rajaniemi has swiftly set a new benchmark for SF in the 21st century. And now with his third novel he completes the tale of his gentleman rogue, the many lives and minds of Jean de Flambeur. Influenced as much by the fin de siecle novels of Maurice leBlanc as he is by the greats of SF, Rajaniemi weaves intricate, warm capers through dazzling science, extraordinary visions of wild future and deep conjecture on the nature of reality and story. And now we find out what will happen to Jean, his employer Miele, the independently minded ship Perhonnen and the rest of a fractured and diverse humanity flung through the solar system.

Nachdem Hannu Rajaniemi mit 'Quantum' eines der meistbeachteten Science-Fiction-Debüts der letzten Jahre geglückt ist, setzt er seine Saga nun fort. Diesmal führt es Jean le Flambeur, den Meisterdieb ohne Gedächtnis, und seine Freunde auf der Suche nach dem mächtigen Kaminari-Stein in virtuelle Realitäten wie aus 1001 Nacht. Nur einer der gottgleichen 'Herren des Universums' kann den Schlüssel zu diesem Coup liefern. Jeans Aufgabe erscheint nicht nur kaum lösbar, sondern sie ist im wahrsten Sinne des Wortes existenziell - für den Meisterdieb ebenso wie für die Machtverhältnisse im Sonnensystem.

In Hannu Rajaniemis gefeiertem Science-Fiction-Roman »Quantum« versucht der Meisterdieb Jean le Flambeur, der sich an seine Verbrechen nicht erinnern kann, Antworten über sein Gedächtnis und seine Identität zu finden. In der Stadt des Vergessens, wo Lebenszeit als Währung gilt, plant er den größten Coup seiner Karriere.
