Processing Power: A Collection of Science Fiction

by William Moran

This freshman foray into science fiction short stories explores the boundaries of man and machine, questions the nature of the soul, and wonders at the world. Join in this contemplation of the mysterious and wonderful scenarios technology and ingenuity have brought within arm's reach. This collection contains 5 short stories. They range from the tribulations of the engineer behind artificial intelligence who wonders exactly what he has created, to a guy with an impressive sounding--but in reality mundane and unrewarding--job attempting to hook up in a bar, and culminates with the touching tale of a couple whose minds have become linked via USB ports in the backs of their necks.
