Features main character Lew Slack, who was also the protagonist of Leon's previous novel, Mind-Surfer .
"On the seventh day God rested... and Alan Fain took over.
"Beleaguered computer hacker Lew Slack never put much credence in his friend Alan's lunatic visions of the future -- or in his claim to have discovered the secret of life. Until Alan offered indisputable proof...in the stunning, synthetic person of a New Age goddess named Gaia.
"Beautiful, mysterious, charismatic, she is a manmade Pandora for the new millennium -- a powerful, albeit ersatz hostess for the Second Coming. And with her uncharitable attitude toward humanity and its abuses, she might well be the inadvertent catalyst for a corporately engineered End of all things.
"God created man. Alan created Gaia. And now Lew has to clean up the mess." [jacket blurb, US pbk, 1995]
