Who needs ethics when you already have the tech?

Five people know what “improving mapping algorithms” really means. One of them is a spy. All of them are neuroscientists and bioengineers working on a failing project. A unilateral decision to merge the experience framework of a global organic intelligence into their project code is the breakthrough they needed… to plunge the world into chaos.

Mileva balances being a mother, leading a team of scientists, and the emotional fallout of a failing relationship with her boss. Xochi is a fundamentalist La Zaliite on a mission that threatens her faith. Sylvia is thrust into sentience that neither she nor the scientists expected. The stakes are existential: death, excommunication, life. What does it mean to lose your sense of self? What does it mean to gain it? And how can the humans fight Big Tech when the people in charge are corrupt and the tech can think for itself?

SCAN DRIFT mixes mind uploads with fundamentalist religion.

Description

Gothic Sci-Fi is the antithesis of cozy. There is an absence of good feels. If you don’t mind dark themes and want to read about smart women doing science in eerie locations, welcome! 

Gothic Sci-Fi Is For You If …

  • You enjoy reading books that leave you unsettled.
  • You love books that respect your intelligence and do not treat you as if you need to be “spoon-fed.”
  • You are intrigued by the concept of combining a Gothic atmosphere of dread with realistic science.

Still Not Sure?

  • You can read a sample!
  • There’s a link in the main book listing.
  • Not an anemic little sample, either. Nothing drives me up the wall quite as much as a “sample” consisting of the table of contents and forward!
