New book by Jim Alexander (Rerun to Eden)

It’s been two years in the making, but I’m delighted to announce my new book Rerun to Eden is now out and about. A collection of original short stories with an AI theme. These stories aren’t about a Skynet-infused AI apocalypse. They take a more nuanced view where AI and humanity come together, but with a realisation that this won’t always be the case. The day is coming when each will go their own way. 
But the proof of the pudding is in the eating (or is that reading). It will be exciting to hear what you all think in the coming months. 
This is the official blurb:   

Humanity is dying out. The cause of our extinction is unclear. Artificial Intelligence (AI) is now the dominant construct, and it is timeless. And time is a luxury people do not have. Will AI decide to help, and do all it can to prolong the lifespan of humanity? This is a collection of short stories that examines our relationship with AI and in so doing, reflects on what is to be human.

Available in paperback and digital formats from Amazon, Barnes and Noble, Waterstones, and lots of other places, including the Planet Jimbot online shop.
