Hello Humans! I’m always on the lookout for books that feature AI so I can recommend them to my spouse.

Hello Humans! Today I'm reviewing Dark Mind Rising, the sequel to The Dark Intercept - which I reviewed around this time last year.

Hello Humans! Today I'm adding another book to the 'VR' shelf that seems to be growing every few months or so, especially after the Ready Player One success. I've previously reviewed Lucky Ghost, We are Such Stuff, and the original book in today's series Otherworld. I have also reviewed Ready Player One but that was...not such a hit for me. I...
