In 2034, the stars went out. An unknown agency surrounded the solar system with an impenetrable barrier, concealing the universe from humanity’s gaze.
In 2067, Nick Stavrianos is hired to investigate the disappearance of a mentally disabled woman, Laura Andrews, from the institution where she was being cared for. Aided by a skull full of neural modifications, he follows her trail to the Republic of New Hong Kong, where an organisation known as the Ensemble has uncovered Laura’s extraordinary secret: an ability that could transform the world.

Wonderful
This is one of my favorite stories of all time. The characters are interesting and the ideas are amazing and intriguing. This is the story that made me fall in love with Greg Egan.
big brain required
Try as I might, reading sentences and paragraphs over and over, I was able to follow much of it, in a macro sense; just enough to enjoy the story but not enough to avoid feeling like my 3 dimensional head had been folded into 10 dimensions, unfolded into 5 and then given a roadside sobriety test.
And I believe this is one of his easier ones.
