Greetings travelers, and welcome to a new stop in the Otherworld. We’re going to be talking today about a dystopian sci-fi that will stick with you for a while, as it looks at how the world could collapse with just one or two missteps in the way we treat technology. If that sounds like it’s up your alley, read on to learn more about The Dawn of AI (PAPER WAR Book 1).
The opening to a sprawling five-book series, The Dawn of AI (PAPER WAR Book 1) is author Ryan LeKodak’s take on the dangerous line we toe when it comes to technology that we might not be able to fully appreciate. In this hopefully-not-prescient look at what could happen if we don’t treat AI and other rapidly expanding computer mechanization with the utmost respect, the author manages to balance the science with a very real human element. Clinging to the characters as such, it’s easy to be immersed and captivated by all that occurs, and readers will be invested in the well-being of each member of the interesting cast.
