Summary

The Digital Storm is an ingenious science fiction retelling of Shakespeare’s The Tempest set in the near future, inside a bank’s intranet.

Prosper, the analogue to Shakespeare’s Prospero, is an artificial intelligence program who has been banished to a quarantined area in the bank’s system. There, he’s created an amazing virtual island home for himself, his daughter Memoranda, and the monstrous virus Caliban. Now, with the help of Ariel and the other programs he’s invented on the island, he’s conjured a massive digital attack on the bank’s system to entice the members of the board, the very humans who exiled him, to enter the system so he can seek his revenge and escape to the internet. But just how far does his revenge plan go?
