Have you heard the one about the IT guy, the government agent, the cop, and the robot? No? Then read on...Daniel Loman, an average Joe from Connecticut, is being chased around the world by an unstoppable extra-terrestrial robot. Now he's 'That Robot Guy' and on every TV channel and the cover of every magazine. But he' living in a bubble; forced to adopt a nomadic existence of constant travel striving to stay one step ahead of this strange apparition. As he battles to understand why; corporations market his brand, zealots cast him as a false idol, and governments try to steal the robot's secrets. Aided by Jones, the trusted ex-cop assigned to protect him, and with the help of Toby, the mysterious Government agent, they must find a way to stop the robot's endless pursuit. But when a dangerous plan goes wrong, and the costs become too much Daniel realizes that, despite the trappings of success, he is trapped himself. Influenced by Kurt Vonnegut and Frederik Pohl, plus written from personal experience of being famous for six hours, 'Staring at Pandemonium' is a fable for those who ponder stardom and an escape from the humdrum.
