The Cybernetic Walrus by Jack L. Chalker Pdf

EVERYTHING YOU THINK YOU KNOW IS WRONG... That was the strange message left on Cory Maddox's e-mail--just at the moment when years of work on a revolutionary subspace computer system was about to pay off. Nothing would be the same for Cory again. Suddenly his life was thrown into chaos when the company that controlled his patent was sold out from under him, and instead of imminent wealth, Cory was facing immediate poverty. Then along came Alan Stark, who wanted to recruit Cory for a special research project on virtual reality. Stark was reviving the secret NSA work of the legendary Matthew Brand, who had disappeared under mysterious circumstances years before. Cory had always idolized Brand, so he was initially thrilled to be involved. But he quickly discovered that there was nothing virtual about the realities he was working on. Instead, he found that Stark was on the verge of controlling the very fabric of reality itself. Cory was unsure of Stark's ultimate goal, until he began to recall pieces of another life and found himself in the middle of a battle between two groups of people who could use "rabbit holes" in space and time to jump between different realities, personalities, and lives. Whoever had control of the power to shape reality would have the power to become a god--or a devil. But before Cory could combat Stark and his minions, he first had to remember which side he was on...

The March Hare Network by Jack L. Chalker Pdf

GO ASK ALICE Time after time, life after life, Cory Maddox was being incarnated into worlds he found both familiar and strangely different. And it was only in his latest incarnation that, for the first time, Cory brought along knowledge, skills, and memories of his previous existence--memories of cold betrayal, memories that told him that nothing he saw, nothing he felt, could be trusted. Nor could he trust his companions; others who, like himself, kept moving from life to life, intent on gathering enough power to escape the endless cycle. But it was only with the help of those companions that Cory could develop the technological means to peer beyond the veil of reality--to the system that controlled all existence, where perhaps he could glimpse the shadowy figures whom he was sure were manipulating reality...if what he was experiencing actually was reality. Time was running out. His memories gave him an advantage over the others, but he would have to act quickly and surely if he were to discover the truth--before truth itself could no longer be trusted...
