Murder is always wrong, right? Could you empathise with a murderer? Maybe you only think it's okay to kill some people and not others. Let's find out!


Are you tired of never being able to finish a book, or being unable to finish key story beats in the allotted time during a short commute?

Reading has never been more accessible, but your free time is severely diminished and a long drawn-out novel may seem more like a chore. You are lacking the pleasure of finishing a story, and the motivation to bring reading back into your daily life is unfulfilled?

The Artefacts of Artificial Intelligence series consists of short and punchy stories that work well on their own as their own self-contained narratives but together work like chapters of the same book. You are guaranteed to read the entire piece, enjoy the pleasure of finishing a good story, and bring back the habit of good reading.


Do not hesitate to purchase this story at a very cheap price, or read it for free as part of your Kindle Unlimited subscription.

The ending is a gut punch

This made me feel disgusted with myself by the end. The story follows the internal monologue of a women who is wrestling with the decision to kill someone. Her therapist is a generic robot who seems to sympathise with her and it hints that he agrees with the murder.
I suppose i was forced to view the situation like a robot and weigh up the deeds of the person to be killed and they really sounded like they deserved to be killed.
At the final words all the pieces clicked into place and suddenly all the bizarre events made sense in a new context and i felt like i'd been punched in the gut.
Its a very short read i finished in 10 minutes.
This story made me feel horrible.
Its good but in a bad way.
