Our hero, Guy, wakes up on Ascension Station with no memory, and no one around except an A.I. named Daisy to guide him through his work day at Meat Fabricator Hub No.2, where his job is to scrub metal panel 28-B. What is Ascension? What's the fundamental nature of reality? What's the best way to meditate? And why is there a mean space pirate attacking the station and a horde of demons about to invade Earth? All of these questions and more will be dealt with in an efficient, crisp, dry, rubbery and disconcerting way in this exciting introduction to a 12 part series of science-fantasy/military sci-fi/spirituality literature books by David Poul Jack.
