Editorial Review:Product Description:The Earth is the graveyard of billions, thanks to mathematician and rogue cryptographer Jack Potter and the treacherous extraterrestrial creature known as Wheeler, Jack's one-time business partner in the trade of alien and human technologies.But Potter and a handful of others managed to escape the holocaust thanks to the miracle of teleportation. From the cold gray ruins of the Moon, the last pitiful remnants of the human race now stare down at the devastation that one of their diminished species unwittingly helped to bring about. Here at civilization's end, a beautiful Chinese mind assassin, a cold-blooded cybernetics genius, a DNA-manipulating "gene witch," and Jack himself stand at the threshold of a new day -- when accelerated evolution will open the door to the full achievement of human potential; when the epic saga of humanity will begin again and Jack will ultimately be redeemed...if he doesn't go insane first.
But Wheeler is still out there -- and out to finish what he started. And this universe isn't big enough for Jack Potter to hide himself in.

Signal to Noise
A Signal Shattered
These books are wonderful, full of action and greed with back stabbing double dealing spies, technology that gets you wondering, and drama at a pace that feels like it's over before it starts. Recommended. Wheeler is a character to remember as is Jack. I've read these books twice over the years, and found them better the second time. Though the second book is a stand alone, it should be read after the first book, Signal To Noise.

A Signal Shattered
Eric Nylund
This book, a wonderful sequel to Signal to Noise is everything and more than its predecessor. Highly entertaining - extremely high science set in space and involving everything from interdimensional communciation to buddhist monks. What's not to like?

First of all, this is an almost impossible read if you were not familiar with "Signal To Noise" that, in my opinion, was a superior book in many ways. My 4 stars is actually 3.5 rounded up. We have the same characters and the same general problem.
Let's forego all the silliness about capitalism gone mad or aliens who have the same psychological motivations as us or even the premise that there are hundreds of cultures at approximately the same windown (5,000 years or so) of technological ...

What would you do if you were somehow responsible with blowing up the human race, except for a small handful of people you chose to save? In only a true sci-fi manner, could that question resolve itself in a funny, ironic, dark, and somewhat optimist way.
The book picks up exactly at the close of Signal to Noise, with Jack trying to keep his sanity and some group of companions alive and together, while not being discovered by Wheeler. Nylund continues his fast-paced writing style, with ...
