A short story set in the universe of Roger Williams's cult classic novel, The Metamorphosis of Prime Intellect. Humanity has created a new god, the all-powerful Prime Intellect, whose prime directive is to promote and protect humans above all other species. Yet it's just another day to an ancient species living on a distant world.
Fans and critics alike raved about The Metamorphosis of Prime Intellect, first published in 2003 and one of the first novels to explore the themes of how humanity will survive when our technology is powerful enough to grand our every wish. MOPI is "...a true hard SF epic with tones of Charles Stross and Hannu Rajenemi." -- Damien Walter, The Guardian
