Conscious

The intensely thought-provoking science fiction novel, Conscious, is set a year or three into the future. The 'Internet of Everything' is making the world a more connected place than ever before. Work, play, and everything else besides, are becoming increasingly automated ... and that's where the problem starts! Because something odd is happening: 'things' are beginning to misbehave and no-one can work out why. What starts as an amusing mystery quickly becomes very dangerous indeed. A ragged bunch of academics, scientists and philosophers are on the case - and may know the answer. But now they have to convince people that their crazy explanation is true. And that's only the start. Against a backdrop of a world suddenly beginning to fall apart, they're in a race against time to get someone to do anything about it. And not everyone is on their side!After a career of scientific publication, this is Vic's first fictional work.
