Existential Hologram: A Science Fiction Anthology

by Jason Russell (Editor)

Reality is an inescapable prison to all within yet it leaves its inhabitants with nearly no notion of what it is, how big it is, what it means or even whether or not it exists objectively or subjectively.

And yet, despite all of the mystery surrounding this most fundamental construct of existence, we've assembled twelve tales that manage to further blur the lines of sense of self, space and time, causality, necessity and possibility.

The following collection of science fiction treats reality as little more than opportunity to entertain, explore, question and conquer.

From simulation to cybernetics, artificial intelligence to avatars, Existential Hologram reminds us all that while consciousness may be the only certainty, entertainment is fuel for thought.

Reviews

[David Hill · Rating 5 out of 5]

A good collection about our virtual future.... This is the 5th or 6th time my story "SQ 389" has been reprinted, so it must have something going for it ... Which is why, as the author, I say ... read it and make up your own mind! And if you can, let me know what you think.
