A science fiction epic from "the best writer in America" (Tom Clancy) - Hugo and Nebula award-winning author John Varley.

Fleeing Earth after an alien invasion, the human race stands on the threshold of evolution. Their new home is Luna, a moon colony blessed with creature comforts, prolonged lifespans, digital memories, and instant sex changes.

But the people of Luna are bored, restless, suicidal - and so is the computer that monitors their existence....

I have a much worn hard copy of this book. And now I’m pleased to have the audiobook too. Amazingly detailed characters, a fascinating look at what the future might hold. With humour (not jokes, but the situations we find out characters in), compelling drama and a great story, this book is a tale of how we might behave if we had the technology to do pretty much whatever we want, then have to deal with the consequences.
