Cannot remember title and Author

[Aron]

Took out book from Hewlett library SF section. Writer was Canadian male. Story was, that a micro chip allowed long distance star travel and reanimation in cloned bodies. The Hero was sent to see about a problem far away concerning a space disruption. Which turned out to be about a micro universe.
Can some one help me remember the book or writer?
thank you in advance. Aron

Was it noir detective-ish? It sounds a lot by Altered Carbon by Richard K. Morgan, but he's from the UK, not Canada.

not noir detective-ish. Straight off the sf shelf.
thanks anyway

I was thing Morgan also but when he mentioned the micro universe, well that was taken out of play

[Aron]

should I post my question in a different place?

Aron, you didn't post it in the wrong place - I think it's just that none of our members have the answer, unfortunately.

There's a website somewhere that specializes in answering this type of question, but I forgot the link... maybe someone else here remembers?

This sounds something like Greg Egan's book "Schild's Ladder", but Egan is an Australian.

Wikipedia has a list of Canadian SF&F authors that might help you narrow it down.
