A man battles his addiction to a devastating nanotech drug that steals identities and threatens the survival and succession of mankind as a galactic species. After the Nova-Insanity shatters modern civilization, new factions arise from the fusion-glass of destruction to challenge the giant orbital corporation that once was the saviour of humanity but now holds it hostage under a hegemony of addiction and reprisal. Rex battles his personal nemesis Glow, a vicious, all-controlling nanotech drug that lives-on across multiple hosts, cutting and pasting memories and personas as it follows its own innate rules of survival. Head filled with dark secrets and the ghostly reconstructions of past users, Rex is pursued through the grim remnants of Coriolis City by an assassin whose synthetic, pre-apocalyptic biology makes him virtually unstoppable. To the transhuman uprising, Rex could be a prophet, his memory a repository of historic attractor-states sent from the future. To others, he' s the nanotech-plague incarnate, the end of all biological life and the start of something terrifying and new.

"Tim Jordan' s Glow is a terrific read from a major new voice. A first-rate novel; I was enthralled. " "A deftly written debut jewel of cyberpunk" "Running beneath the violent tangle of identity and memory is a fascinating exploration of how people cope - or fail to - with adversity. " "A great story that does an interesting job of not cheating a lot on the science side. "
Tim is an award-winning scifi writer from England, who now calls Florida home. Glow is his first published novel, but others exist stored as tiny magnetic bubbles or locked in charge reservoirs by arrays of transistors. He loves to hike, play guitar and draw terrible pictures. He also writes software and is particularly fascinated by artificial intelligence and hopes to one day create an artificial mind that will replace do all his work.
