Now Available! EMERGENT



Book 1 of the Cerenovo Series -- EMERGENT -- is now available for purchase or for Kindle Unlimited. Only on Amazon!

An AI immobilizes the world's computers on the same day that a genetically-modified influenza virus begins killing millions.

At his new job with a Seattle biotech company, Ridley Pierce refuses to use artificial intelligence to code software for synthetic organs. Fuzzy calculations, sweeping assumptions, and infinite loops can kill. What he doesn’t know is that an AI is already in control.

When a deadly influenza virus begins sweeping through the world’s population, this emergent program paralyzes the world’s computers and everything that relies upon them. As the robots and drones of industry come to a standstill, starvation looms. Can Ridley rescue the digital world before society itself collapses? Or, has the Information Age already been lost to history?

Something different

A new science fiction short-story
from acclaimed author Michael S. Nuckols

As I work on longer works, occasionally an idea will stick in my head that I have to get onto paper.  This was the case with my newest short story, Primitive. This work is a bit different from my previous writing as it falls firmly within the realm of speculative science fiction.  Primitive tells the story of a man living in a medical utopia in the distant future.  Years earlier, he agreed to live forever; the machines hold him to that promise.

As a thank you to my readers, I am giving Primitive away FREE from September 7th until September 11th.  Available only for Kindle download here.
