The Quantum Commute
On your commute to work, a stranger taps you on the shoulder and strikes up a peculiar conversation.
The stranger tells you of their intergalactic travels and offers to take you on an incredible journey through crime and space.
How could you possibly refuse?
With a trainspotter-like curiosity for explorations both literal and philosophical, The Commutator leads you on a voyage that will forever challenge your beliefs of right and wrong.
Bored of your daily back and forth?
Then take The Quantum Commute now and embark on a galactic odyssey through moral ambiguity. Get ready to travel from our time, through the near future, and to the farthest reaches of the known galaxy.
Fans of crime and science fiction alike will love this tale. Inspired by greats such as Iain M. Banks and Philip K. Dick, The Quantum Commute is daringly ambitious in its vision of galactic society, and devilishly dark in exploring the inner depths of the human condition.

A peek into the human soul through sci-fi/crime stories. Very good!
Sci-fi? Crime? Essays on the human soul? All three, very well glued together with excellent writing. What I liked? No happy ends, no super heros, no monsters, just human beings all around (even when they are AI); and I liked the writing style, at times I slowed down just to enjoy the flow of the words. My favourite commute was 'Empty Digital Data', AI with a human soul. What I didn't like? The 'Urgent Assistance Required' just for being too long. Overall, highly recommended.

Thought provoking, Black Mirror esq.
Favourite Commute (story): The Electronic Commute. This one, like many of the others would be at home in the Black Mirror TV Series. Imagine if Amazon Alexa was sentient and was able to take an active role in your family!
As for the rest of the stories, all are very different and pose various moral and ethical questions. As a non-sci-fi reader myself, I didn't expect to like it as much as I did and found that even through some of the sci-fi-heavy stories (or commutes as they are called by the author) there were some sine interest characters and stories to enjoy.
If you like sci-fi, give it a go, if you aren't a sci-fi reader, give it a go!
