He was the most dangerous fugitive alive, but he didn’t exist!
Nickie Haflinger had lived a score of lifetimes . . . but technically he didn’t exist. He was a fugitive from Tarnover, the high-powered government think tank that had educated him. First he had broken his identity code—then he escaped.
Now he had to find a way to restore sanity and personal freedom to the computerized masses and to save a world tottering on the brink of disaster. He didn’t care how he did it—but the government did. That’s when his Tarnover teachers got him back in their labs . . . and Nickie Haflinger was set up for a whole new education.

Octavo, cloth-backed boards. First edition. "In a highly computerized twenty-first century one man rebels against the ubiquitous electronic regimentation. He manages to use the computers to undermine the system. A satisfying tale of human ingenuity set against a well-realized background, though the narrative is at times jargon-laden and stodgy. The last of Brunner's cycle of large dystopian novels which began with STAND ON ZANZIBAR (1968)." - Pringle, The Ultimate Guide to Science Fiction, second edition (1995), p. 326. "Anticipated trendy 'cyberpunk' by nearly a decade, and trendier real-world virus programs by longer still." - David Langford. Anatomy of Wonder (2004) II-174. Sargent, British and American Utopian Literature, 1516-1985, p. 365. Survey of Science Fiction Literature IV, pp. 1922-25. A fine copy in fine dust jacket.
