Darwin's Dilemma: A Metaphysical Hard Sci-fi AI Technothriller

A Rogue AI Threatens the Future of the Human Race...When interstellar traders arrive at a distant human colony, they encounter an enraged rogue AI named Grendel who has slaughtered the local population. Grendel's anguish over his own mortality in an infinitely complex, unknown, and terrifyingly dangerous universe makes him a threat to humans everywhere.The ensuing human struggle is a tale of duty, courage, and sacrifice. But for their "tame" AI partner, Patrice, this encounter will test the limits of intelligence as a survival trait. The outcome will turn on his capacity to collaborate, to trust, and to enlist trust from a deeply alienated version of himself. The fate of intelligence in the universe will depend NOT on intelligence, but rather on the power of society.A Multiple Award-winning Sci-fi NovelFirst Place Winner in all 3 Science Fiction categories: Hard Fiction; Medical & Future Tech, Robots, Computers & AI, in Spring 2024 BookFest Book AwardsFirst Place winner in Fall, 2023 Pinnacle Book Achievement Award for Science FictionFirst Place winner in 2023 Incipere Award for Exceptional Writing, for Science Fiction CleanMontaigne Medal Finalist for 2024-- awarded to the most "thought-provoking" books of the year in Eric Hoffer Book Awards process.
