Authors & Reviewers discussion

Ghosts of Revenance is an apocalyptic science fiction novel about a futuristic society of consumer appliances. It explores the struggle between human identity, artificial intelligence, and the limitations of both, through the eyes of a nonbinary computer programmer rebooted in an unrecognizable world.

Blurb:
A story of two futures—one near, one distant—and a mechanical folk called anthromechs, who straddle the eras on a mission to preserve humanity’s memory.

In the summer of 2061, Emily is a computer science student making ends meet by participating in an experiment to digitize the human mind.

In another summer, century unknown, Emily awakens in an unlikely contraption at a storage facility where commercial electronics sit unused since an extinction event known only as the EMP. Recent events have tested the boundaries of the “happy law” algorithm that protects anthromechs from violent AIs, and a rogue visitor during Emily’s genesis stokes fears of worse to come.

Follow Emily on a quest for answers and identity in Revenance, a warehouse city where fast friends are just a shelf away, but ghosts of human condition haunt the aisles of free will.
