Habu

WHAT PRICE IMMORTALITY?

When a treatment was discovered which could offer carefully selected humans the gift of indefinitely prolonged lifespans, there were many eager to become part of this top-secret program. But the condition for obtaining treatment was that an individual must start life over on a distant colony world. And one side effect of the treatment was the removal of all physical and psychological “defects.”

Only Reuben Flood, one of the original programmers involved in the longevity project, had found a way to beat the system, setting up special instructions within the master computer to leave his memories and personality intact after every treatment. But in Reuben's case one of the things left intact—harbored deep within his subconscious—was the persona of Habu, a vigilante berserker. Over the centuries, the legend of Habu had grown, and down through the years there had been many who searched for him. And now Reuben was about to be caught in a final battle between his own alter ego and the forces which had for so long sought Habu's destruction!
