I’m linking this MacLeod interview because he mentions his next novel at the end:
A stand-alone space opera, provisionally titled Newton’s Wake, set in a fairly distant future where – this is not a spoiler – the answer to the Fermi question ‘where are they?’ has turned out to be the same as the answer to the ‘where is it?’ question about the missing mass. The aliens *are* the missing mass. Ninety percent of the universe has long since been turned into thinking machines, and all that we can see is the remaining wildlife preserve. Welcome to the park.
Oh, and he talks about Religon as well, so it’s related to the Philip Pullman interview mentioned previously.
