Requests:  0 Summary:  "On the fictional island of Patusan--and much to the ire of the Patusan natives--the Korean conglomerate LK is constructing an elevator into Earth's orbit, gradually turning this one-time tropical resort town into a teeming travel hub: a gateway to and from our planet. Up in space, holding the elevator's "spider cable" taut, is a mass of space junk known as the counterweight. And it's here that lies the key--a trove of personal data left by LK's former CEO, of dire consequence to the company's, and humanity's, future. Racing up the elevator to retrieve the data is a host of rival forces: Mac, the novel's narrator and LK's Chief of External Affairs, increasingly disillusioned with his employer; the everyman Choi Gangwu, unwittingly at the center of Mac's investigations; the former CEO's brilliant niece and his power-hungry son; and a violent officer from LK's Security Division, Rex Tamaki--all caught in a labyrinth of fake identities, neuro-implant "Worms," and old political grievances held by the Patusan Liberation Front, the army of island natives determined to protect their sovereignty"--Provided by publisher.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Copy Status   Hanapepe Public Library Adult Fiction Djuna   Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hilo Public Library Adult Fiction Tyuna   Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kapolei Public Library Adult Science Fiction Tyuna [Sci Fic] Checked In Add Copy to MyList Koloa P/S Library Adult Science Fiction Tyuna   Checked In Add Copy to MyList McCully-Moiliili Public Library Adult Science Fiction Tyuna   Checked In Add Copy to MyList Salt Lake-Moanalua Public Library Adult Science Fiction Tyuna   Checked In Add Copy to MyList
