Paradigm
It has been six years since a global EMP eradicated a technologically-enhanced virus. It saved humanity, but it decimated a race of AI beings, leaving the human survivors alone in a world where nothing worked. While a handful became wealthy, billions of the not so fortunate were left to die.
Andrea Rowen isn't satisfied with that outcome. After a gruesome attack on her life, she accepts an experimental nanotechnology upgrade that makes her nearly indestructible. She and her benefactor hope to give this revolutionary technology to everyone, so that no one will ever need again.
But she won't go unopposed. A terrorist organization known as C10, made up of survivors of the Blackout's carnage who are just as desperate for change, has vowed to stop her at any cost, seeing her as an abomination that turned herself into a machine. If she is to succeed, she must not only overcome these terrorists, but also win the trust of a world that has learned to trust no one.
It's a terrible time to have an identity crisis.
Experience Andrea's story and decide for yourself...is she still human?

About the author
W.K. Adams
3 books1 followerWarren Kyle Adams has been a huge nerd for as long as he can remember. The first time he saw The Empire Strikes Back - and experienced it with surround sound - it blew his mind. His love of all things tech fantasy grew and matured as he discovered Asimov and Dick, and he began to take an interest in robots and machines.
Today, he is a voracious consumer of media on all things artificial intelligence. His first book series, Sentience, is a philosophical action foray, an exploration of the boundaries and interactions between machine and man. Every day, he watches and understands a little more that what is fiction now, may not seem so farfetched as more time goes by.
WK Adams currently lives in Houston, TX with his loving wife and two rambunctious children.

Phenomenal AI story!
The author creates such a believable, technological semi-dystopia that it's almost as if he got in a time machine and travelled forward to take notes. Really complex characters wildly creative subplots. Cannot rate it highly enough!
