Mappa Mundi

Mappa Mundi - Justina Robson Have had this kicking around for years, and have finally got around to reading it, and wish I had earlier.Readly good near future sci fi, looking at a form of mind control, and the battle between the various agencies to control this technology. Has a number of main characters, and various threads that come together in a reasonable dramatic ending, and a good complex plot.
