Meer oor hierdie e-boek
This new material abundance available to some was possible after the creation of the sentient processor, artificial brains trained with neural patterns scanned from human beings, skilled manual workers, whose skills built the baseline for training the early sentients.
While waiting to take his flight home, Gustavo, a hostile and lonely man, remembers the events that preceded his father’s unwilling contribution to the creation of the first sentient brain four decades earlier. Events that changed the course of Gustavo and his family life.

Meer oor die skrywer
Baltar Xinzo is the pen of a writer and engineer who has embraced the freedom of writing fiction to jog the emotional intelligence of his readers. Xinzo speculative fiction is characterized by a dark tone, often qualified as sci-fi noir, but, unlike other exponents of this style, his stories are permeated by a sense of hope and human sensibility. In his fiction writings, he explores existentialist issues in the backdrop of genres such as cyberpunk, hard science fiction, trans-humanism, and trans-realism.
You may have realized that Baltar Xinzo is the pen name of a real human being, not a mere AI. He lives in Ottawa, Canada, with his wife and two lovely cats that make him company during his creative sessions. When not writing fiction, he is a research scientist, among other things.
