Far future. National governments have fallen, state borders have been erased, and the time has come for enclaves that unite people on the basis of a common culture or ideology. The most dynamically developing society is the “neoviktorians”, combining high technology and morality of the XNUMXth century. Their main stronghold is Atlantis on the coast of former China. One of the leaders and major shareholders of the Neo-Victorians, Lord Finkel-McGraw, orders the development of the Primer for Noble Maidens, an interactive supercomputer in the form of a book, for the princess and his granddaughter. This gadget should replace both the teacher and the parent and help them become true representatives of the elite. Talented nanotech engineer John Percival Hackworth steals a device he has developed from his owners and wants to pass it on to his daughter so she can learn to think freely, without the limits imposed by "neoviktorianism". However, by chance, the "Primer" falls into the hands of young Nell, a girl from the very bottom of this Dickensian paradise. Now she has a device in her hands that can reprogram the future of humanity. And that changes everything...
