Synopsis :

After the collapse of the world economy, a young boy grows up in what used to be Texas as a tough duellist for hire, the future equivalent of a hired gun. But even after the collapse, there is space travel, and he leaves Earth to have adventures in the really wide open spaces. While humanity, and Artificial Intelligence grow and change, he is catapulted into the more distant future and becomes a kind of superman.

Revue de presse:

Praise for John C. Wright

"Wright is a born novelist. And "Null-A Continuum "is a novelist's novel, bristling with ideas and characters.... Wright's book is an erudite homage to the pulp tradition by a twenty-first century master." "--The Magazine of Fantasy & Sciencen Fiction

""Wright's fully realized future pulsates with life, intrigue, and unsettling correlations between his future and our present. The story is epic, operatic, heroic, romantic, and mythic all rolled into one."
"--Rain Taxi "on "The Phoenix Exult ant

""[There are] scientists and artists who dare to dream of post-human futures...Cory Doctorow, Bruce Sterling, Greg Egan, Rudy Rucker--these are just the first names that come most quickly to mind. Add to this list of brave visionaries that of John Wright."
" --SciFi Weekly "on "The Phoenix Exultant"
