What people are saying:
From Bill Nye "The Science Guy" 29 October, 2012. Twitter: @TheScienceGuy
"We join Edward as a regular guy living a regular life, albeit centuries hence. From page one, his world comes right at you, one fantastic futuristic function and worldwide wonder after another. Eftimiades wants us perhaps to ponder what we are all doing here on Planet Earth. Open it up, and hang on."
---------------------------------------------------------------
From Bill Prady, Co-Creator, The Big Bang Theory TV Show. 29 April, 2012. Twitter: @billprady
"With his comedic dystopian future history populated by hapless reluctant heroes and lovesick artificial intelligences, Nick takes a big step toward becoming the American Douglas Adams."
-----------------------------------------------------------------
From Dr. Buzz Aldrin, Apollo 11 Astronaut
“Edward of Planet Earth” is a thought-provoking satire about life in humanity’s high tech future and the impact on social, political, and religious institutions. Edward is here, look out planet Earth.”
Two hundred years in the future Edward Temple, a "uniquely ordinary person" becomes caught up in a zany world where self-aware super-computers are as argumentative, egotistical, demanding, and emotionally needy as the humans they serve. Everything is fair game as Edward navigates befuddled governments, psychotic software, greedy corporations, overly attentive robots, and romance. And of course jelly donuts find their way into the story.
Join Edward as he is drawn into a quest to discover the true nature of God, which computers believe to be more software than spiritual. Joining him in this adventure are newly found friend Amanda Schoor and an advanced artificial intelligence named Mega Brain.
Fantastic on-line reviews.
