One autumn day, while multibillionaire Richard Dodge Forthrast undergoes a routine medical procedure, something goes irrevocably wrong. Dodge is pronounced brain dead and put on life support, leaving his stunned family and close friends with difficult decisions. In the coming years, technology allows Dodges brain to be turned back on, an achievement that is nothing less than the disruption of death itself. An eternal afterlifethe Bitworldis created, in which humans continue to exist as digital souls. But this brave new immortal world is not the Utopia it might first seem. Paradise Lost by way of Phillip K. Dick, "Fall, or Dodge in Hell" is an exhilarating speculative literary saga for the modern age.
