Neal Asher: Asher, N: Gridlinked, Flexibler Einband

Klappentext

WILL THIS MISSION BE HIS LAST?

When a portal to other planets explodes on Samarkand, thousands are killed and a terraforming project is obliterated. Earth Central Security suspects sabotage and assigns Agent Ian Cormac, their legendary investigator. But he has his own problems. Years spent mentally linked to the Polity's AI network have eroded his humanity, and this gridlink has to be severed or he will die. Without it, he has only his wits - and shuriken, a throwing star with a mind of its own - to rely on.

Cormac's disastrous last mission also haunts him - as a psychopath and a murderous android now track him across the galaxy, seeking revenge. Meanwhile, the ice-bound planet of Samarkand hides deadly secrets beneath its surface . . . secrets Cormac is about to disturb.
