More DescriptionHow strong will our character remain in the face of emerging technologies including artificial intelligence (AI)? This and more are explored in my debut speculative fiction novel The Die is Cast in 60,000 words. In the year 2061, a law-abiding scientist realises her invention will be used to enslave humanity forever. She is forced to delve deep into the forbidden world of lucid dreaming and study consciousness, which confronts her inner demons including those from her abusive childhood. Layered with supernatural and psychological elements, The Die is Cast explores the challenge of how to integrate with technology without compromising the soul. Also, we reflect on the damage abuse and neglect cause. With rapid advancements in every field and the escapes they offer, these are important conversations to be had.
