Lora: Artificial Intelligence Just Got Real... And She's Lovely (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798218393038)

"ONE OF THE VERY BEST BOOKS EVER FOR ME! WENT STRAIGHT TO MY HEART, AND IT WON'T LET GO!" -Amazon Review

The year is 2055, and Kenton Bean is a lonely college professor whose life takes a turn when he spends his entire inheritance on LORA, a beautiful quantum android who he hopes will fill his days with joy, his evenings with romance, and his heart with love. But what starts as a personal journey soon places him at the center of man's integration with AI.

Some believe LORA is a threat to the future, so she and Kenton set out to prove that the love between a man and his machine, plus basic human values, can conquer all in this beautiful, touching, and funny science-fiction love story.

"Cirillo's writing shines with a unique blend of wit and wisdom, reminiscent of the late great Kurt Vonnegut... For those who enjoy the satirical edge of Vonnegut, the speculative depth of Philip K. Dick, and the quirky charm of Douglas Adams, LORA will be a delightful addition to your reading list."

KENTON BEAN BOUGHT HIMSELF AN ANDROID COMPANION NAMED LORA. HIS WIFE DID NOT APPROVE.

"What a great and thought-provoking book... The ending is absolutely perfect." - Amazon Review

"Lora is... the perfect girlfriend, the perfect woman. Except she's not a woman; she's not even human. Lora is the latest, greatest version of a perfectly lifelike "robot" infused with Artificial Intelligence. These AI robots have made the world a much better place... until they haven't. Patrick Cirillo has created a taut thriller with a believable, disturbing, yet inspiring vision of the future of our world. A real page-turner with lots of humor, humanity, and unforgettable characters, "Lora" is a look at the world 30 years from now, when AI has taken over... sort of. Isaac Asimov meets Kurt Vonnegut in this unique vision of what may be forthcoming for all of us." - Barry Rubinow, Filmmaker, Amazon Review.

"Engaging, funny and, hopefully, a very prescient view of our future with Artificial Intelligence."
