Cover Art: Uncredited (illustrator). 1st Edition. © 1987: 1st in the 'Cipola Sequence' series of books. 1st edition, 1st printing:- Synopsis: It is the 21st century. 20th-century problems such as mass unemployment and cancer have been vanquished, the former by mass leisure, the latter by drugs. World government has overcome the squabbles of nation states, and a successful space colony, the Hub, has been established at L5. Utopia? Hardly - lunatic sects abound, the vast urban Stacks are riddled with violent no-go areas, and cancer has been replaced with organ implosion, which is much, much worse. Turner is a Reclaimer, his job to rescue and deprogramme the victims of the far-out religions. But his latest case leads him into deeper waters than a burned-out Reclaimer suffering from the early stages of organ implosion wants to swim in. A Mordell Conjecture Probe - the most powerful informational device yet developed - has fallen into the hands of the Pranksters, a mysterious and violently eccentric anarchist group. With the Probe in their hands World Government (already a shaky edifice of plot and counter-plot) could plunge into absolute chaos. Meanwhile a ship sets out from the Hub, its mission to intercept and analyse the huge gas cloud that has appeared in near space. But as the ship approaches it, the cloud, impossibly, becomes a solid mass. And as the bewildered crew sets off to explore it, reality itself begins to bend and break up. Turner's case has turned into a paranoid nightmare from which there seems to be no escape:- Review(s): "'The Hub' is a blackly funny, inventive high-tech science fiction novel, a superb debut from a young British writer":- (original cost £10.95).
