    About this ebook

    Ethan always dreamed of visiting the real world. Too bad not everyone wants him to.

    A terminal infant converted to living code, Ethan exists as sentient software. The world is closed to him, glimpsed only through the Internet, until now. Miraculously granted passage into the Flesh, Ethan experiences life's sensations for the first time, but access is costly. As he becomes unable to pay for time in his body, Ethan will be driven to do anything to escape his digital purgatory, but his desperate actions may come to haunt him.

    His life has just begun. Now he is about to lose it.
