Product Description
What kind of life will we find in the depths of Europa’s oceans? What kind of life will we allow an AI with human level intelligence? The ten stories in Sapience: A Collection of Science Fiction Short Stories explore these questions and many more.In the near future, humanity builds a colony on Europa, one of the moons of Jupiter. They tunnel into the ice to explore the dark oceans beneath the moon's surface, searching for signs of extraterrestrial life. What they find will change them forever, setting humanity on a path to the stars. But the old conflicts and hatreds of Earth are not so easily escaped. Will human colonists on distant planets and moons create a paradise or a terrifying dystopia?
Customer Reviews
I read this book in only a few days. The stories may be short, but they're so well written they're immersive, and it's hard to put the book down. It has a dark, dystopian feel that definitely made me even more afraid of space and robots than I already was, but as each story ended, it left my mind churning with new thoughts and ideas from different perspectives. That, to me, is the mark of a great story. My favorites were the last two, "The Last Bird" and "Swan." I fell in love with the characters, Kyrie and Leda, right away, and their world is beautifully painted. I would love a whole novel about them. If you like science fiction stories, this book is definitely for you.
