The E-Citizen Saga

Five Books. One Expanding Definition of Person.

The first three completed novels carry a single legal crisis from the factory floor to the highest court and into network identity and public legitimacy. Book IV moves into constitutional settlement. Book V, The Intelligence Wars, stress-tests that settlement as governments, corporations, labor movements, and emergent machine societies fight over classification, continuity, replication, security, and sovereignty.
