President John F. Kennedy once said, “Mankind must put an end to war or war will put an end to mankind.” Today, a new element has been introduced to the preparations—artificial intelligence. The United States, in its quest to rapidly and effectively defend the nation from a nuclear attack, has incorporated AI into its operation plan of response. But what if the artificial intelligence relied upon by the nation’s decision-makers is wrong? What if AI takes the controls of America’s nuclear response? Might it trigger nuclear war without justification?

In a near-future world, a new technological therapy is quickly eradicating cancer. The body’s cells are entirely replaced with nanites—robot or android cells which not only cure those afflicted but leaves them virtually immortal. Literary researcher Yonghun teaches an AI how to understand poetry and creates a living, thinking machine he names Panit, meaning Beloved, in honor of his husband. When Yonghun—himself a recipient of nanotherapy—mysteriously vanishes into thin air and then just as suddenly reappears, the event raises disturbing questions.

A slow, delicious, sneaky, unraveling of a story we don’t want to believe could ever happen.
This title is stealth in its delivery. If you are listening on Audible, pay close attention. I always learn that lesson after I finish and realize I have questions. I have listened to book #1, DONATE, twice now. I am a fierce Handmaid devotee and was skeptical that this would satiate my need for more dark, dystopian drama. Color me so wrong. It is sneaky in its unraveling; there is so much going on that it’s easy to miss an important detail. The narration was very good but, occasionally I missed character transitions because I busy trying to translate from British to American English!!! Just a joke but, more seriously, I sometimes missed the narrator’s vocal switches from one character to another and would have to navigate back a few seconds, or more, to identify the speaker. It wasn’t a huge negative, however. Emma Ellis is new to me as a writer but, I will certainly be finishing the trilogy (thank you so much for not making beg for more) and then I intend to check into her other offerings. I am over-the-moon-happy to see book #2, PRESERVE, is now available on Audible. I will be buying book #2 pronto. Thank you, Emma. Thank you, Audible.
