Autistic & Dyslexic - Scifi & Fantasy Author - Archery, Gold Panning & Pokemon Cards

Book of Ominiue - Mature first contact scifi & fantasy (First works: a bit cringey but I love it)
Skyship of Truskal - A Terry Pratchett ripoff fantasy
Like the idea of magic being more in the background? Or a character who is more interested in engineering and discovery then magic missiles?

The skyship of Truskal is the story of Telana, who just wants to know what is out there *points to the edge of the world. But has to go to school first.

Alternate heading "Mindlessly consume again, damn it! The obscenely rich and shareholders are getting nervous."

different fields. Basically, AI is efficient at dealing with data, but it cannot create or derive anything new. It is limited because it only computes from data, it doesn't actually think.

It's frustrating and maybe not what the author wanted.

Not sure if it's expansive (being Aussie and all). But mine is listed more than that in the UK. Not through choice. I have it listed at "x" value based on what I'd expect in Australia, and for some reason once they hit the online shops they're even more than what I list.

Lol, was thinking around the same lines. Some 70s book covers were certainly ... questionable.
But I love that author, and haven't seen anything outright sexist from them, so fingers crossed.

100% AI, thus my smartarse-ness.
should've also screenshotted the original emails. It had the sickening AI politeness and wordiness.

Ironic, I got another book club email thing today, and it was actually written by a person, no pretending and to the point. It was unusual.

Not too bad at all. Better than I'd have done coming into it blind xD

It's a full blown space fantasy/classic fantasy mix (With some proper scifi moments in between) <<< but that makes it sound a lot cooler than it really is xD
