TERMINATION OF SPECIES

So, I've finished a new novel, hurrah!

TERMINATION OF SPECIES is science fiction, set some years in the future. Anti-technology terrorists wreak unrelenting destruction when they get their hands on powerful military cyberattack AI software, forcing a life altering decision in hopes of saving the very existence of humanity. Against this backdrop, Weston Foard must juggle a championship chess match while falling in love with Jasmina Simonis, the soulmate who would upend his life; Chris Giordano is writing a book about the best people on Earth while being stalked by a terrorist; and software genius Martin Sandoval is recruited to work with a mysterious woman to disarm the terrorists' software while trying to prevent his prosthetic arm from going amok. It's about the future of humanity, AIs, biotech, immortality, the perils of technology, a bit of chess, a bit of humor, a bit of romance, a bit of philosophy on how society would deal with immortality and much more. Fairly timely with the rise of ChatGPT, Bard, and so on.

It's available in ebook, paperback, & hardcover. You can get it from all the usual places, like...
