Flawed Machines

Autorentext

Tyler Copeland has experience in various fields of work and study, stemming from early coursework in economics to earning a degree in philosophy and political science. After graduating, he gained experience working in both finance and law. Flawed Machines is Tyler's debut novel, though he has made short stories and flash fiction available on his blog. Tyler's passion for philosophical novels was spurred while he worked at his university library. From the science-fiction stories of Asimov and Heinlein to the psychological thrilling tales of Philip K. Dick, the interest for writing well-composed stories rich with mystery became a hobby. Some stories that specifically influenced the motivation for Flawed Machines were Mary Shelley's Frankenstein, Oscar Wilde's The Portrait of Dorian Gray, and Isaac Asimov's The End of Eternity.

Klappentext

It's been five years since Osmond Diaz returned to Chun from his seemingly endless journey abroad. Now, Osmond and Andres, his exceptionally unique research assistant, must find a new purpose in their work as their long-held project has finally come to an end. While familiarizing with his vibrant city, trouble ensues from an eerie tech-infused cult, the Mounean Order. As the pieces begin to connect, this group appears to be trailing every step Osmond and Andres take. What the Mounean Order intends to do when they catch up with Osmond and Andres is nothing short of a mystery, so the two may need help from friends and acquaintances that Osmond hasn't spoken with in years. The question remains, "What do they truly want?" -- Flawed Machines is a beautiful creation of a Frankenstein tale influenced by Asimov's brilliantly contemplative, robotic scenery.
