David Louis Edelman has provided the first five chapters of his new novel, Multireal, which is the sequel to Infoquake. His publisher, Pyr, has created a huge pdf sampler of some of their upcoming releases, and the first 45 pages of Multireal are included.

Check out David’s blog to see what challenges he faced in writing a sequel, introducing new characters, and generally complicating the story in every possible way while still making it accessible to the readers.
And as he notes: “Also included in the sampler are excerpts from Joe Abercrombie’s Before They Are Hanged (sequel to the acclaimed The Blade Itself); Kay Kenyon’s A World Too Near (sequel to the equally acclaimed Bright of the Sky); Theodore Judson’s The Martian General’s Daughter; Robert Silverberg’s classic Son of Man; and two from Mike Resnick, Stalking the Unicorn and Stalking the Vampire.”
I see that smile.
