Book "Thousand Tales: Side Quests" Now On Sale!
5 years ago
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0842BCZC5/
A car autopilot AI starts to write fanfiction. Programmers debate whether to let their greatest creation get Internet access, while trying not to get shot. A genius survives a police chase only to wake up inside a game world as a skunk-girl. A game-player tries to play missionary to a world of AIs.
These stories and more make up "Thousand Tales: Side Quests", a new collection showing the "backstage" plotline of the Thousand Tales setting. It's optimistic, near-future SF about the rise of a world-changing Game and its AI overlord, and the people who join her cause or walk away. You can jump in here, even if you're not already familiar with the setting.
If you want some free stuff in the same world, also check out "Thousand Tales: Extra Lives". And then maybe read both at once to get all of the stories in chronological order. =)
(Contains some material from the original book "How We Won the Game", and >60% new material. I'm in the process of splitting that book into two volumes with a ton of new stuff and revision.)
