Amber Stone and the Dead Doctor | Vivian Otoo | Sci-Fi, Dystopian (N) (I) (F)
Amber Stone is a seventeen-year-old orphan. From the outside looking in she has a great life. But with the Elite class controlling society, life is far from great. Even her "loving" Auntie has warned her from a young age to hide who she is and, more importantly, what she can do. Because the Elite class is dead set on keeping the status quo. Anyone who is different is a threat. If her true nature were ever known, it would mean her life.

The Memory of My Shadow | Ben Wakeman | Science Fiction (N) (I) ($)
It is the year 2052. General A.I. has arrived and already become big business. Magdalena is a brilliant and tenacious computer scientist who led the charge and profited greatly as the founder of Commune, the company that successfully planted Digital Companions, or DCs, into the heads of most of the world’s population. But at the height of her success, she mysteriously walks away from it all. From a remote compound deep in the mountains of North Carolina, Magdalena writes her story with the help of her latest creation, Meela, a DC imbued with the personality and emotional intelligence of a human. Magdalena’s obsession with mapping the personalities of real people to DCs is fueled by a longstanding obsession that is more than scientific curiosity. At sixteen, she survived the deadliest school shooting in American history. The shooter was her twin brother, Joe, who died in the aftermath. When Magdalena begins mapping her latest model, a charismatic painter named Evan, a confluence of events forces her to confront her motivations. But is it too late? The virtual monster she has created could prove to be a destroyer of worlds, just like her brother, whom she simultaneously reviles and mourns.
