Digital humans struggle with consciousness, death, procreation, and eternity.
When the digital backup of Dr. Monica Gray's mind awakens to discover that it is just as sentient and alive as the human she was copied from, it spurs a search for a unique meaning and purpose for this new digital human. Six progressively more disturbing crises define the emergence of digital humans, what it means for them to die, their compulsion to create children, the existence of a digital afterlife, and the creation of a new reality that is big enough for both digital and physical humans.
In Beyond the Mind's Horizon, Book 4 of the Robotic Surgeon Series, Dr. Monica Gray experienced the trauma of having her mind separated from her body and imprisoned in a computer system. Simultaneously, the Adam AI was thrust into the biological brain of Monica Gray's body. In that unnatural state, Monica created a digital backup of herself in case the worst happened. After her escape and restoration to her physical body, the backup was forgotten-until now.
What happens when a digital copy of a human consciousness is restored while its original human still lives? Join us as we explore the implications of digitizing the human mind, and the unexpected consequences of trying to cheat death itself.
Echo explores the boundaries between human consciousness and artificial intelligence, asking profound questions about the nature of self, the ownership of memories, and what truly makes us who we are. When the mind can be copied, stored, and reawakened, what happens to the soul? Can a digital being love? Destroy its own kind? Bear children? Transform the world?
In this technothriller that bridges human drama with cutting-edge science fiction, Monica's journey from being a digital copy to living as a unique entity challenges our understanding of identity in an age where consciousness itself can be reduced to code. Her story opens the door to a future where the line between human and digital existence becomes increasingly blurred, and the definition of life itself must be rewritten.
Perfect for fans of Dennis Taylor's Bobiverse, William Gibson's Neuromancer, and viewers of Black Mirror, this thought-provoking novel redefines what it means to be human.
