Huge shoutout to my incredibly talented friend Robert J. Sawyer for the publication of his new science fiction novel The Downloaded. One of the many things I love about Rob’s stories is the way he’ll take an idea and push it to its outer limits, always thinking about the social, political, scientific, and philosophical implications.
In this novel in particular — a fascinating tale about what could happen when we develop the technology to download our minds into a computer and store our bodies cryogenically — he not only explores how his idea changes the world, but how the world changes his idea. This book will appeal to all readers, not just science fiction lovers.
Learn more about Rob at sfwriter.com. Enjoy his new novel and explore his other work. You’ll be richly rewarded.
