Is it fiction? In 1952, a primitive UNIVAC computer successfully predicted the winner of the Eisenhower vs. Stevenson presidential election. In the years since, computers have predicted election winners from tiny samples of incoming votes, or have they gone further?

"I want to write a good story, but there must be something more, something to ignite us. My message is simple, we are one race, a human race, and our survival depends on it." Gary lives in Southern California where he has completed his fourteenth novel, Collision.
Enjoyable read. The story is complex and had multiple layers and each layer defining different characteristics of the previously known characters. Though it is fiction, Larson’s story as a brilliant academic computer specialist who is confronted with very real problems, all of the sudden, is very credible. Thoroughly enjoyed the twists and turns and premise of the story.
