Computer genius Carl Lewis has invented the cyberbook, an electronic device that instantly and inexpensively brings the written word to the masses. But not everyone warms to Carl's ideas. Add corporate spies, authors threatening to strike, and a wave of mysterious murders, and you have Ben Bova at his best.

Product ReviewI thought this was a leg pull. It's not, though, according to friends who say they read the book way back when. This, then, ACCURATELY PREDICTS the triumph of the ebook and trad pub reactions, even the Amazon model. The FIRST EVER Baen e-submission was in 1985, one of the chapters in Carmen Miranda's Ghost is Haunting Space Station Number Three. Cyberbook was published in 1989, so it was written maybe 1987? How do you DO that? Time machine?
