“Book Descriptions: Home Is the Hangman' shows Zelazny at his very best grappling with questions of what is good and evil, what makes something truly alive. 'Home is The Hangman' is part of a series of novellas where the premise is that when the world databases are unified, a programmer takes the opportunity to completely erase his existence. He pursues a career as a trouble-shooter, taking on those assignments no one else will do. In a series of stories he investigates a case of sabotage at a top-secret nuclear project, 'The Eve of RUMOKO' (1969), defends a group of dolphins accused of murder, 'Kjwalll'kje'koothai'lll'kje'k' (1973), and tackles the Hangman problem. All three are collected in 'My Name is Legion' (1976).” DRIVE
