Can there be an afterlife for AI? When automation replaces the workforce, what remains of purpose? What does wealth mean when every need is met? What is the greatest power in the universe, and what price must be paid to harness it? Eleven stories of the Solar Empire ask these questions, all searching for the same thing. For even a hundred-thousand-year Empire is but Dust on the Solar Winds.
This has to be one of my favorite Sci Fi books ever! A book of stories, all loosely tied together, and very different. The stories that I'd think of as hard Sci Fi were easy to understand, and very readable. I was impressed to have Sci Fi stories, funny stories and sweet stories in the mix. I plan to read the rest of this author's books!
