Interface: The Novelettes of T. E. Mark - Vol IX (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798307436714)

In a post WW III future, with the world rebuilt by the technology corporations, wars are fought in a controlled, Alternate Reality domain. Now, in 2194, the distinction between reality states is being intentionally blurred - and Commander Nic Senton of the North American Alliance has devised a plan to regain control from a Superintelligence that has apparently decided to send us back - because it believes we miss real war. CLOUD ENGAGEMENT

England's intelligence director believes he can save the empire from the Russians in the east, the Chinese who have already taken the American west and the militant factions tearing the 54th state apart. To succeed, he'll need Kairn Edwards, an Aberrant whose parents were killed by the empire, to merge with the world's administrator and change how it views humanity. LIKE A DOVE

Corbyn James, a neuroscientist experimenting with a revolutionary Brain-Computer Interface has unknowingly inserted data beings - escaped dissidents from another world, into the minds of his student volunteers. Now as hunted refugees, they must work together to protect Earth from the destructive wrath of their powerful, ideological enemies. INTERFACE
