Synopsis
...unlimited brain-computer interfaces,
...the possibility of life existing inside stars,
...the hacking of human behavior, and ecological collapse.
(Also, the healing power of revenge.)
What if a weaponized water supply reprograms pattern recognition in the brain, provoking violent rage at the sight of the Google logo. Or an accidental hive mind creates a global agenda to resurrect itself in the scant seconds between its emergence and dissolution? A steroidal jump gate-building ship attempts to survive passage through a red-giant sun by hiding inside an ice-giant planet. When something is trying to colonize the sun, humans try to stop it. (Spoiler alert: Nobody comes off very well.)
In his newest short fiction, Watts reserves whatever hope he has for whatever comes after humans.
