I started a book back in 2013 or 2014 and I don't remember the name or author and didn't get very far before returning it to the library. It was recommended in a thread here I think so hopefully someone can point me in the right direction. It was a scifi novel that started with the main character in space jail and this next part gets a bit fuzzy. The cells were tied up to some strategy game the inmates played against each other and when they did bad the cell shrunk and made life harder for them I think? Then the main character got released to go help the government (?) do something or other (steal something?) Anyone know what I'm talking about?

Hobnob posted:In Hannu Rajaniemi's The Quantum Thief the protagonist starts out with many simulated copies of his mind trapped in a (simulated) prison bring made to play the prisoners dilemma. One copy gets sprung from prison to help steal something from a city on Mars, by one of the major factions. Benagain posted:I'm thinking quantum thief? There's a whole bit where they run prisoners through a literal prisoners dilemma forever. It's this. I remember the audiobook telling me his name, vaguely remember how it's pronounced, and knew for a fact I couldn't spell it
