Book excerpt: In 2063, the moon is the high ground in the struggle among the combative representatives of three societies. On the moon, the Chairman-an Ayn Rand libertarian and mutant-believes that genomic self-transformation is our destiny and demands that we abandon our language-based prejudices and embrace that destiny now! On Earth's surface, the USA has become a Christian nation and it vies for dominion over the crowded and resource-poor Earth. Hidden underground and undersea, Saul Baum and the leaderless members of the secular creed of Protagonism believe in the need to harness logic and mindfulness before changing our genome. When the Protagonist, Ner Nala, completes the experiments for a scientific proof of the Sapir-Whorf hypothesis, the Chairman arrests and imprisons her for a recent lunar murder. Her father-Dr. Frank Nala-hires the private detective Ben Song to travel to the moon to prove her innocence. This is the tale of Ben's quest and how it changes him-and us-forever.
