Lawton’s two children Jason and Diane are the ones that have boxed Tyler in throughout his life, always encouraged to show the genius and drive that Tyler lacks. Lawton, aerospace magnate and anthropomorphic personification of the military-industrial complex. In Tyler’s case this is a bit odd since he is an only child he and his widowed mother live in what is effectively the servants’ quarters across the lawn from the Big House owned by E.D. Much like Axis, Tyler Dupree suffers from middle child syndrome. My understanding is that this is a very good thing as I’ve read that Axis suffers from a strong case of middle book syndrome and Spin, despite some flaws, is strong enough that I am anxious to see where Wilson plans to take us with the rest of his story. The second book in the series, Axis, came out in 2007 and the final book, Vortex, is scheduled to be released in May of this year. Spin, the first book in an eponymous trilogy by Robert Charles Wilson, was published in 2005 and won the Hugo award for best novel shortly thereafter.
