Just finished the novel, took me a little longer than expected. It's a good book and I'd recommend it. Without spoiling anything it's about a world that is completely saturated with nanotechnology (like an angelnet) but the AI running it can no longer talk to or understand humans. Consequently the humans on this planet have fallen back to a dark age. The protagonist is a young mason who, in true hero of a thousand faces style, is thrust out of his simple life on a journey to understand what went wrong with the world, perhaps to fix it.
