Technopia Full Box Set

Technopia #1-4

by Greg Chase

Creation Sam Adamson would do anything to leave the climate-ravaged wastelands of Earth… even if it means working for pirates. So when he’s offered a job repairing a derelict spaceship’s computer, he jumps at the chance to head to the Kuiper Belt, an area at the edge of the solar system reviled for its lawlessness and tenuous ability to sustain life.
 But the repair proves difficult, and the pirates who hired Sam leave him to die in the computer’s core. Fortunately, the inhabitants of a utopian village rescue him and show him that human relationships can be more open and connected once Earth habits have been broken. He’s content to live the rest of his days away from Earth until he learns his work on the spaceship inadvertently created a new, all-knowing—but misguided—technology-based species. And their mistakes threaten to tear the very fabric of human interaction. 
Forced to leave his Garden of Eden on the terraformed planet, he takes his wife, Jess—his link to all he holds dear—and goes back to Earth to face his responsibilities. Before Sam and Jess can ever hope to return to their village, they have to teach the next generation of the new species how to change the direction of mankind for the better. Evolution When a dangerous interplanetary power play destroys his world, Samuel Adamson must once again leave the idyllic planet of Chariklo. Mankind should have left Sam in peace because now all hell is about to break loose.
 With nowhere else to go, Sam and his village board a rescue ship and set out to integrate their utopian society with the people back on Earth, most of whom are still devoted to doctrines of repression.
 Tensions run high as Sam resumes his role as the god of the Tobes and owner of Rendition, the most powerful corporation in the universe. But events boil over when a radical church devoted to restrictive ideas about sexuality kidnaps his daughter… and the Tobes’ response unleashes a techno-human hybrid with godlike powers even greater than Sam’s. Damnation Samuel Adamson—God of the Tobes—has neglected his progeny for too long. With no one to shepherd them, his technological offspring are easy prey for the tyrannical Moons of Jupiter corporations. The highly evolved beings must act as slave drivers and prostitutes under the leashes of their corporate masters—and propel the human work force toward its annihilation. 
But the despotism of the Moons is only part of Sam’s problem. If he can’t find a way to unite the Tobes, Earth will face almost certain destruction. 
Sam doesn’t give up easily, and things are about to change. Salvation Having killed their god, the Tobes of Jupiter are left with a void only Sam’s wife and daughters can fill. The technologically advanced beings don’t know what havoc these women intend to release across the solar system. Jess dreams of retribution for the destruction of her homeworld, but she and her daughters face a bigger problem—the potential end of life on Earth. Turning pirate could be the only way to entice the space renegades to her cause. But while the outlaw adventurers are the only force capable of confronting the Moons of Jupiter, they aren’t very trustworthy. Jess isn’t the only one who’s cagey with her plans. For too long, those who love Sara have kept a watchful eye on her. Freed at last, Sara must face what her father long the temptation to take ultimate power over another species.
 Alone back on Earth, Emily inherits the chaos of a dying planet.

Good Seru

Good Series
Overall this has been an enjoyable series. Good characters and scene setting. I really enjoyed the first 3 books. But I think it lost it's way in the 4th. With the final part completely ridiculous

An entertaining storyline

First, the negatives: the science was rather weak at times. Travel over millions of miles happened like a drive across town, people breathe normally on moonlets with little gravity, they go from weightlessness to Earth gravity too easily. I also always am offended by grammatical mistakes, such as his frequent use of "a myriad of" when simply myriad is correct. But on to the positives: the story provides many opportunities to stop reading and ponder scientific and philosophical questions and options. I enjoy a book that allows my mind to roam. I imagine many will be offended by the concept of God offered herein, but I find it fascinating. The goals of the village are admirable, and I want to live there, but we learn the fate of all admirable goals. And anyone raised on good old space operas will have fun. Being able to think deeply about some parts and not think too deeply about others will make this a fun series of books to enjoy.

What a great story!!

I thoroughly enjoyed this one. The writing is on point...flows well. From thoughtful pieces on humanity's challenges to how we will deal with AI and its effect on us, the perspective was very eye opening. Pirates...AI... corporations....and our gods ...all wrapped in a an exciting ride.
