About this listen
"The Silicon Joust: Knights of the Data Table" is a whimsical parody of the classic King Arthur and the Knights tale. Instead of King Arthur and the Knights, we have the valiant AIs assuming the role of knights. This silly medieval romance unfolds with AI characters as the main protagonists. Since the story is so short, this is all you are going to find here.
Whenever you find yourself in need of a brief respite from the mundane, tired, or simply craving a bit of amusement, this delightful book is the perfect choice. It will transport you to a world of wonder and leave you refreshed, ready to tackle your tasks with renewed vigor in about half an hour.

Or how about when you're so caught up in the "what-ifs" that you miss out on the "what-is" happening right before you? This isn't just a pesky little problem; it’s like having a stone in your shoe on a never-ending hike. Life's too short to waste it in "what could be" or "what was." This isn’t about thinking; it’s a trap. And the thing about traps? They're meant to be escaped.

Story
Breakfast of Champions (1973) provides frantic, scattershot satire and a collage of Vonnegut's obsessions. His recurring cast of characters and American landscape was perhaps the most controversial of his canon; it was felt by many at the time to be a disappointing successor to Slaughterhouse-Five, which had made Vonnegut's literary reputation.

Story
Hilarious, fascinating, and a roller coaster of dizzying, historical what-ifs, Napoleon's Hemorrhoids is a potpourri for serious historians and casual history buffs. In one of Phil Mason's many revelations, you'll learn that Communist jets were two minutes away from opening fire on American planes during the Cuban missile crisis, when they had to turn back as they were running out of fuel. You'll discover that before the Battle of Waterloo, Napoleon's painful hemorrhoids prevented him from mounting his horse to survey the battlefield.

Interesting twist on a classic
This was an interesting twist on the classic King Arthur. The story was entertaining and the narrator kept me engaged. I don't normally listen to books like this but I listened while I worked and found it interesting and entertaining.

What a fun book!
Super interesting idea for a fiction book. I must admit I'm not much of a fiction reader but I was thoroughly entertained by this short story. I love the imagination of the author and how the book connects modern society with an old story of King Arthur. Easy to listen to in one sitting. Narrator has a nice voice as well.

An entertaining marriage of old and new
This book was well narrated and funny! The parody was short, but entertaining. If you’re looking for a futuristic revamp of an old classic, look no further.

Interesting
This is interesting, and quite different than what I was expecting (something akin to Knights of the Round Table). The digital, electronic and AI mix to terms and the personification of them all was a little too much for me, but fun nonetheless. (Princess Algorina, her challenge from her father, the various the holographic images in data chambers, and then throwing love into it all). What was to become of AI Inifinity Matrix ? Thanks for introducing me to a whole other realm of fiction!
