The Nine Billion Names of God, by Carter Scholz
No, it's not Clarke, it's an exercise in parody semiotics. And pretty secret indeed, though I found an excerpt. These publisher exchanges can be kind of funny, this one was about average. Read it and reassign the meanings of all the words, for fun. 2 stars.
