Summary: Luke reviews this novel from 1984 and thinks about bobbling himself up, only to come back in future times when he can read all of Vernor Vinge’s books and not have to wait so long for the new ones. For more info see the SFBRP Wiki Buy the book on amazon.com (full disclosure, the book costs no more if you use that link to buy the book, but I get a few cents for each sale):
