Vernor Vinge's Rainbows End is a science fiction novel.

The story explores themes of advanced technology, the blurring lines between reality and virtuality, and the interplay between human ingenuity and potential societal collapse. Intricate plots and multiple characters create a fast-paced narrative filled with suspense and unexpected twists.
