Twelve year old Sorrow Anderson was taken to the Machine four years too early. She has heard all the horror stories from her sister about the Machine, how it will take you away forever, as it did to the rest of their family, stripping you of your identity. She finds herself instead as a part of an essential but secret system. She has two choices; she can either become what she is expected to be, another drone who keeps the Machine running, or she can fight to keep her life and her identity.

32 parte Kumpleto Mature

The year is 2040 and Eric Roberts hates technology. In an era where automated systems and A.I. robots carry out most work obligations, these advancements have rendered scores of humans societally useless. Aimlessly wandering about, the displaced people struggle with their new reality-a hardship painfully familiar to Eric. Once a neuropsychologist, his professional livelihood unceremoniously ended when medical tech forced him into obsolescence. Now a community therapist, he spends his days working with the displaced, helping them craft meaning in a world that no longer needs them. Then Eric's world upends when Arvin-an A.I. robot-arrives at the counseling center for mental health services. Reluctantly, Eric has to work with the embodiment of his misery, and while doing so, unearths a damning secret. With his life at a low point, he figures there's no harm in shelving his professional obligations and investigating the mystery. However, he quickly finds out that solving the unknown will only be possible with help from a most unlikely source.
