Remold Jaka has created the ultimate game. Called the Wholack Game, it is considered a heaven. A place where nothing can be denied and everything can be had. A game so immersive it changes the face of human endeavor. Society has become a place where every right has been privatized, and every service has a cost, there is no right or wrong. Everyone is born an outlaw. The impacts of law, the enforcement of justice, equal rights, medical care, fire protection, food, water, and everything else are moneymaking schemes to enter the nirvana of The Wholack Game. Everything costs because everyone wants to get into the game called Wholack. For those that risk and lose it all--and con no longer afford a basic human rights package--there is FairGame. A set of parks where the only law is survival and the reaches of civilization stop at its boundaries. Even the Hunters that enter the FairGame preserves have no law to protect them. The Hobos certainly do not. The closest entities to law are the FairGame Administrators. A deadly job, it has only one advantage: a quick route to wealth, to Wholack. Remold is a man caught in success, a fool. He cannot assist the forces that seek to end the game, nor can he cope with the wreck of civilization that exists on Earth. Ending the game would put over a billion people back onto a planet that is more jungle than home. Hobo Signs is the final book of a series that began with The Galileo Syndrome, continued with The Fires of Home and flowed into The Dirties. The structure of this set is edgy. In every way, "Hobo Signs" is the tether for the other three books. Read it first. It is a very satisfying book because... Perhaps it is all not as pointless as it once appeared.
