David Dante is your typical middle class guy. House, kid in college, and a job where technology is taking over. Every day he watches as his position becomes more and more obsolete. With bills piling up, and job prospects dwindling, all hope seems lost. But a simple routine procedure of getting a neural implant can change all of that. The neural implant will provide him with immediate access to vast knowledge, the ability to communicate telepathically, and enhanced processing capabilities, David Dante will be back on top, providing his family the life they always dreamed of for a small price….his humanity. Exit of the Ascended is an unnerving vision of a future where being connected isn’t for social networking, it’s for your livelihood.
Would have been a lot better if it weren't for the immense number of typos and the lack of voice. It felt like I was reading monotone which I guess would have made sense if it was only from the main dude's perspective, but perspective moved into other characters. Very interesting premise and very moving story though.
