Indifference Engine

Summary

Alan Blake, a twenty something loser, who''s only skill is his ability to listen well to others. People tend to offload their problems with Alan. They feel better about themselves, while he continues his miserable, dreary existence. However, all that is about to change when Alan responds to a job advertisement. He soon discovers an organization completely staffed by alternative variants of himself. And if that wasn''t mind-blowing enough, his alternatives are at war with, um, themselves, or at least variants of themselves in some form or other - it can all get a little confusing.
