Aprašymas

Reconnect your innate curiosity with 13 short fantasy, science fiction, and horror pieces exploring our networked world and how we desire to change it. "Only Disconnect" from Third Flatiron Anthologies brings you speculative fiction and flash humor about the pitfalls of distraction and overstimulation. Explore near-future societies where citizens barter away their conscious lives for work. Walk with the first human to integrate an alien university. Consider whether it's wise trying to preserve our loved ones forever. Ponder how to cope with rogue AIs, killer grizzly-human hybrids, and nature gods, each disgruntled with humanity in a different way. Play along with expert gamers forced to log out--only to find an alien planet's reality even more engaging, and laugh out loud when our gut bacteria realize how much control they really have over us. "Only Disconnect" proudly showcases an international group of new and established speculative fiction authors.
