Mal Goes to War
Autor Edward Ashtonen Limba Engleză Hardback – 9 apr 2024
As a free A.I., Mal finds the war between the modded and augmented Federals and the puritanical Humanists about as interesting as a battle between rival anthills. He's not above scouting the battlefield for salvage, though, and when the Humanists abruptly cut off access to infospace he finds himself trapped in the body of a cyborg mercenary, and responsible for the safety of the modded girl she died protecting.
A dark comedy wrapped in a techno thriller's skin, Mal Goes to War provides a satirical take on war, artificial intelligence, and what it really means to be human.

Notă biografică
Edward Ashton (he/him) is the author of the novels Three Days in April, The End of Ordinary, Mickey7, and Antimatter Blues as well as of short stories which have appeared in venues ranging from the newsletter of an Italian sausage company to Escape Pod, Analog, and Fireside Fiction. He lives in upstate New York in a cabin in the woods (not that cabin in the woods) with his wife, a variable number of daughters, and an adorably mopey dog named Max. In his free time, he enjoys cancer research, teaching quantum physics to sullen graduate students, and whittling.
Recenzii
Ashton offers a technothriller with heart that will appeal to fans of the 'Murderbot Diaries' from Martha Wells but also to readers looking for more AI-led stories like Day Zero by C. Robert Cargill and Emergent Properties by Aimee Ogden
Ashton's vision of the future feels all too plausible and his blend of action and humor keeps the pages flying. This is sure to please the author's fans
A funny, fast-paced, fish-out-of-water tale that should satisfy Ashton's growing fan base
A fast-paced adventure that is told with all of the dark humor expected of an Edward Ashton book
