Sunrise Alley

Sunrise Alley

"Sunrise Alley" is a novel by Catherine Asaro about a retired EI engineer named Samantha Bryton, and her adventures with an escaped EI who claims to be human named Turner Pascal.

ynopsis

After barely surviving a ship wreck, Turner and Sam set out on a series of adventures to try and discover who the mysterious "Charon" is (the former jailer of Turner) and what/where exactly "Sunrise Alley" is. Unsure of who to trust, the characters manage a series of escapes, eventually discovering the truth behind Turner's existence and his captor. Both characters explore the notion of humanity and machine intelligence, and eventually come to blur the distinction, with the apparent realization that humanity and machine technology will inevitably merge.
