One beautiful autumn day, while he undergoes a routine medical procedure, something goes irrevocably wrong.

It is an achievement that is nothing less than the disruption of death itself, and the beginning of a new world, an eternal afterlife-- called Bitworld-- is created, in which humans continue to exist as digital souls. But this brave new immortal world is not the Utopia it might first seem ..."-- Dust jacket flap.
