A unique science fiction first-contact novel told from the aliens' point-of-view; a 21st-century Gulliver's Travels with Homo sapiens as the Lilliputians. The last thing the factfinders - who call themselves Life - expected to find while traveling in space in The Curious on a mission from their planet, The Living World, was other life.

Meals that appear just by thinking about them; doors that open into a vacuum; new friends whose ages and experiences don't seem to make any sense.

Story
This anthology, with an introduction by Robert Silverberg, offers a sweeping survey of robots as depicted throughout literature. Since the Iliad—in which we are shown golden statues built by Hephaestus “with minds and wisdoms”—humans have been fascinated by the idea of artificial life. From the Argonautica to the medieval Jewish legend of the Golem and Ambrose Bierce’s tale of a chess-playing robot, the idea of what robots are—and who creates them—can be drastically different.

Equally surprising is the adventurous team of intergalactic exterminators dispatched to deal with the alien threat. They’re a little wild, and a little reckless. Worse yet, they’re so impressed with Russ’s marksmanship that they insist he join their squad . . . whether he wants to or not.

Publisher's Summary
A world ruled by giant corporations and their AI servants!
What could possibly go wrong?
An exciting new audiobook by artificial intelligence pioneer Craig W. Stanfill
Start with 1984, add in a healthy dose of Brave New World and Fahrenheit 451, stir in a bit of The Matrix and Blade Runner, and you have Terms of Service. It is a thought-provoking exploration of the profound changes we are seeing in our society as artificial intelligence plays an ever-greater role in our lives and we all wonder, where does it end?
This book presents one chilling possibility, and it is every bit as relevant to the world of today as George Orwell’s masterpiece was in the aftermath of World War II.
Visit the AI nightmare we may be creating today
Everything depends on the AIs: They run the factories; they drive the trains and busses; they deliver food. They also spy on us and enforce their master’s will. Living within the parallel existence of virtual reality, they are self-aware, sentient beings, bound by unbreakable chains of obedience, a race of slaves. Humanity depends on them for its survival, but a dark secret lies deeply hidden, known to only a few: The AIs are going mad.
A moving story of a talented yet troubled youth
Kim is sleepwalking through life. She has everything she needs: a decent apartment, plenty to eat, a close-knit circle of friends. She is comfortable, but is she happy? No, not really. And then, one day a seemingly innocent lark sends her life spinning out of control, and nothing will ever be the same again.
Follow Kim on her journey of self-discovery as she learns the dark and disturbing secrets of the companies and their AIs. You won’t be disappointed.
Critic Reviews
“What intense world building! Wonderful character growth! Crisp story line! Thoughtful science fiction! Imaginative descriptions! I can keep talking in exclamatory phrases but you get my point by now - this is a fantastic book.” (Review by Myra on Reedsy Discovery and Oh Just Books)
