The Completion
Come on a journey through the entire future of humankind, taking on the mind, body and spirit of people from different ages, through glimpses of their everyday lives.
We live in the destructive necrotech age, and the patterns of its consciousness – aptly called firesoul – persist, even into the ultimate global dream city of the biotech age that follows. But when the support system eventually fails the people that emerge, inspired by access to the knowledge libraries from the past, have to face a degraded planet and evolve to a gentler and wiser watersoul, in harmony with returning life forms. Finally, we reach the Completion of the human story.
Both allegory and vision, The Completion is a compelling read, full of fascinating technological invention and intriguing ideas. It invites readers to question conventional values and certainties, and offers fresh philosophies that are in tune with our age of change.
