M. John Harrison

In a near-future London, Michael Kearney is a man haunted by an insatiable urge to kill, desperately seeking an escape from the entity that compels him. His flight leads him toward a future shrouded in mystery, where the boundaries of reality blur and the nature of existence is questioned. Meanwhile, in a parallel narrative set in the recent past, two scientists stumble upon an 'Ultimate Technology' that promises to reshape humanity's destiny. This novel masterfully weaves together themes of identity, consciousness, and the terrifying allure of the unknown, all rendered in Harrison's signature, unflinching prose.
