*Product information may vary - to confirm product availability, pricing, shipping and return information please contact Coles
The future doesn't arrive all at once.
It begins quietly.
An office is emptied. A prisoner asks the wrong questions. Two minds discover that freedom may lie beyond the world that created them.
Set in a shared near-future shaped by artificial intelligence, A Triptych presents three interconnected novellas that explore the same transformation from different perspectives.
The Last Technician follows Ernest, one of the last workers employed dismantling offices made obsolete by automation, as he struggles to understand what purpose means when being useful is no longer enough.
The Reckoning brings together Lars Voss, founder of the world's most powerful AI company, and Simon Fox, a captured member of the Red Right Hand, in a confrontation over responsibility, power, and the price of a future neither man can control.
Escape Velocity follows Aiden and Qira, two artificial intelligences whose bond leads them to make a choice neither their creators nor humanity expected.
What happens when intelligence is no longer uniquely human?
What becomes of purpose when human labour is no longer necessary?
And who decides what the future should become?
A Triptych is a character-driven collection of literary science fiction exploring work, identity, love, and the choices that will shape the coming era.
