InterstellarNet: New Order. InterstellarNet, #2

Good fences, said the poet, make good neighbors. and interstellar distances made very good fences. Or so we thought.. Earth and its interstellar neighbors have been in radio contact for a century and a half. A vigorous commerce in intellectual property has accelerated technical progress for all the species involved. Ideas, riding on radio waves, routinely cross interstellar space-almost like neighbors chatting over the interstellar back fence.
but there is a way over, or under, or around, almost any fence. Sooner or later, when we least expect it, the neighbors, friendly or otherwise, are going to pay a call..InterstellarNet: New Order chronicles the startling events of Second Contact, upfront and personal, as humanity discovers that meeting aliens face to face is very different-and a lot more dangerous-than sending and receiving messages. This is the second book of Edward M.
Lerner's InterstellarNet series. Book 1: InterstellarNet: OriginsBook 3: InterstellarNet: Enigma ". A twisted plot complete with conspiracies, alien psychology, antimatter physics neep, AI spies, and plenty of shooting action at the end." -Internet Review of Science Fiction
