Then his first novel, In the Drift, was published as a prestigious Ace Special to resounding praise. Now Vacuum Flowers - vivid, fast-paced and tremendous fun - confirms Michael Swanwick as a writer of dazzling inventiveness. ***In the sprawling space civilizations of the future, where humans live in hollowed-out asteroids, tunnelled comets and other artificial habitats, Rebel Elizabeth Mudlark awakes in the Medical centre in the body of another woman. In her world brains and psyches can be re-programmed in hours, bodies cloned and copyrighted and human capabilities enhanced by instant 'wetware' programming. ***Thanks to a lab accident, Rebel's unique wetware is in demand by unscrupulous commercial agencies, so she escapes with Wyeth, a man with no fewer than four artificial personalities. Together they embark on a dangerous quest for survival and self-knowledge, an odyssey that takes them from planet to planet and eventually to Earth, whose people have integrated to form the Comprise, a vastly intelligent but malign group-mind.' ***'I devoured Vacuum Flowers. It is a brilliant, vibrant insight into the human and transhuman future--- beautifully invented, beautifully written. I'm envious.' Ian Watson. (Quote and review quote from inside front of dustwrapper blurb). 'a pyrotechnic and fast-moving tale, jam-packed with inventive detail' Isaac Asimov's Science Fiction Magazine.
