Publisher's summary
Hollywood is dead, virtually bankrupt—but studio CEO Sid Abrams predicted its death, and he knows how to resurrect it. Deep Artificial Intelligence merged with near-human animatrons rebirths three dead mega-stars of Hollywood's golden era—and the Parahuman is born. They think, speak, and act just like the former human stars, they work for nothing, and they're an instant sensation.
Two thousand miles away, a secret plan is contrived to duplicate the President of the United States using the same technology, allowing his parahuman to enter a highly volatile zone where a peace agreement can be signed while preventing his almost certain assassination.
As AI spreads, so do the Parahumans—and their Holosapien counterparts—and few understand the volatile difference. All but impossible to distinguish between the human and the near-human, these beautiful, powerful, and dangerous creatures begin their ascent—and Mike Benchley, Deputy Director of the FBI Science and Technology Division, must find a solution.
It's a fast-paced, suspenseful struggle that just might be more fact than fiction! The first book in a trilogy, WR Hulkenberg merges factual AI data with an exciting "what-if" story that will keep you spellbound.
Critic reviews
"Hulkenberg forces us to rethink the line between science fiction and reality. Here's a page-turner that will keep you on the edge of your seat!" —Dr. Ray Pritchard, Best-selling Author, "An Anchor for the Soul"

Story
In the blink of an eye, a wiki editor’s deep and somewhat unhealthy understanding of a game becomes useful, usable knowledge when he inexplicably replaces the once-cruel royal bastard. Before he can start to push his frail body to use his deep understanding of the lore to handle the imminent apocalypse, or go off to stop an invasion, there’s a more personal task he needs to handle first. His cousin has a knife in her hand, and death in her eyes.
