Anari Idaho. And it is this group, so many decades after the defeat
of the thinking machines, which begins to sweep across the known
universe in mobs, millions strong, destroying everything in its
path.
Every one of these characters, and all of these groups, will become
enmeshed in the contest between Reason and Faith. All of them will
be forced to choose sides in the inevitable crusade that could
destroy humankind forever....
