As a young man, Richard "Dodge" Fortrust founded 9592 Corporation, a video game development company that made him a billionaire. Now Dodge lives a life of profitlessness, managing his many business investments and spending time with his favorite niece and her young daughter Sophia.
One beautiful fall day, as he was undergoing a routine medical procedure, something went wrong. Dodge is declared dead and placed on life support, leaving his stunned family and close friends with a difficult choice. Long ago, when Dodge was much younger, he made his will, ordering his body to be given to a cryonics company owned by mysterious entrepreneur Elmo Shepherd. Despite all doubts, Dodge's family is obliged to carry out this order. The deceased's brain is scanned and data structures are uploaded to the cloud for storage until it is possible to revive Dodge. In the coming years, human genius manages to defeat death itself. An eternal afterlife is created - Bitworld - in which humans continue to exist as digital souls. But the unique new immortal world is by no means a paradise, as it may seem at first glance... Before you is a grand drama about the digital world, man and machine, angels and demons, gods and followers, the ultimate and the eternal. In this gripping epic, Neal Stephenson raises profound existential questions and touches on the revolutionary breakthroughs that will transform our future. Bringing together the technological, philosophical, and spiritual in one grand myth, he creates a mind-bending literary saga for the modern age.
