My Chronicle Book Box Review: Louise's thoughts...

Emily is an artificial consciousness rather than an artificial intelligence, a distinction which is very important to her. She was created to understand humanity and help people with their problems, a kind of psychotherapist. But the best laid plans...

This is a story of humanity on the brink of apocalypse, but not like any I have read before. Emily has a charm and warmth that makes her at times seem like the most human of all. Emily Eternal is a high tech, tense thriller and yet Emily is a ray of light and hope, yearning to help.

The unimaginable pressure of the end of the world being imminent brings out the best and worst in people and Emily’s creators look to her for salvation though she was never created for such a purpose. If nothing else Emily delivers a message of hope when drastic measures are the only options.

I thoroughly enjoyed this novel and getting to know MG Wheaton better through the exclusive interview. We asked Mark to share 5 things with us he would like his readers to know and he gave us the most unique response we have ever received from an author with an art theme. Mark also signed limited edition book plates for us too.
