John Henry Munroe has done everything right. He worked hard, owns
his home, and has prepared for retirement. Now that he is ready to
retire, he wonders why he worked so hard to live the rest of his
days, bereft of close friends and family; in persistent arthritic
pain; finding his only escape in virtual reality games. When the
technology is developed to move human consciousness into a solid
state mind, John Henry puts the same dogged determination to build
his retirement to work to prolong his life; even if he has to work
the rest of his days in his blue collar job, or make a deal with
the devil. It is not the devil that John Henry deals with, but he
steadily loses bits and pieces of himself, starting with his name.
When John Henry Munroe becomes Dekamara, he begins a journey that
will take him away from the little box he worked in for thirty
years to a life he may not want, and compromises he could not even
contemplate, but will be more than willing to make.
