From the Great Dieback to the Singularity

The Cameron twins were each a genius in their respective fields of cybernetics and bioengineering; Bachelor's degrees at 16 and PhDs at 20. But every time they got ready to enjoy their youth, life would send them a curveball. Then things got serious

This is a near-future history covering the period after the Great Dieback of 2029. Over half the world perished after the icecaps melted. This event triggered flooding, tsunamis, starvation, volcanic eruptions blanketing the planet in global winter, and the general breakdown of societies. By 2033, a weary world is recovering.People are struggling to adapt to the new realities.

Then the real dangers emerged. Artificial intelligences, robotics, and bioengineer-enhanced humans threatened to produce a singularity; the event where more capable creatures began evolving at an exponential rate. Human beings might become irrelevant. Or a nuisance to the new lords of the Earth. Will the twins and others fight, die, or surf the singularity?This book is the first volume of an envisioned three volume work. It covers events in parts of the former United States, Europe, and the new China.
