The book named The War on Normal People is the most interesting read I've found for years. It details how AI will basically replace most/all jobs in the near future, possibly within our own lifespan. Even coders (developers, programmers, software designers, whatever you want to call them), who literally created them will be replaced by AI, since even modern day AI is currently more advanced than their human aspects or representatives. This book is very enlightening and actually quite mind-boggling. Even Blizzard Entertainment is adopting this idea (as you read this, right now, and has been for years) and letting AI take over the development side of things. Google has been using this technology for many years as well. It's kind of scary, but it's just so... interesting. I highly recommend the read. It may also be extremely beneficial to the human race. Though, it's up for interpretation :)

Just saw the cover for The Last Emperox. Very nice. Will wait until April 14 2021 for it to be sold Mass Market Paperback. I'm still waiting for The Consuming Fire to arrive in October. Although April of next year for the hardcover for $38.32 including gst is tempting. We'll see how we're doing next April.

Just finished Singularity, Deep Space, Dark Matter, Deep Time, SecondWorld and Steelheart. Now I'm reading The Hangman's Daughter. I do have the novella sequel for SecondWorld on google play books. Still trying to read Mitosis. Now I understand the cover of Deep Time, the planet is Invictus millions of light years outside the milky way 12 million years in the future.

Just finished Mitosis. Very short story only 32 pages. The villain was defeated surprisingly quickly. Saw one review on Goodreads for Season of the Witch, I do not want this book to get spoiled for me so I won't open or read the review. I'm willing to pay extra for the hardcover, this author hasn't ever made a bad book yet.

David just shared this on facebook:

" To all my readership...I apologize for the horrid editing of Season of the Witch...This is not the fault of my partner and friend Kent Holloway...I placed my trust into the hands of an editor that works for a rival author in the same genre and she let me down horribly...This is my fault as I was going through a rough patch in my life both professionally and personally...I promise this will never occur again...I hope you keep the faith after all of these years.....David L. Golemon "

And the second review for the book says the book has major editing errors. Unfortunate, but I didn't notice it in empire of the dragon. Apparently paranormal thrillers are a cutthroat business. Hoping the book comes out on the 5th in hardcover so I can preorder it.
