註釋

Are we living in a simulation unwittingly? How could we know? It may sound absurd, but humans have had computers for less than one hundred years and in that time their power and capabilities have increased at an exponential rate. What are computers going to be capable of in five million years? Simulations containing conscious, independent beings could be created for research purposes or otherwise. Philosophers have argued that it is more likely than not that the earth that we know is a simulation.This fictional book presents the story of a man born within a simulation, destined for something greater than the boundaries of his reality would ordinarily permit. The simulation exists millions of years after the extinction of humanity and the circumstances surrounding its existence are most unusual and likely to defy expectations. Little more can be said without spoiling one of the strangest plot twists ever likely to be encountered.This bizarre 18,000 word philosophy - science fiction hybrid is unconventionally written, fast paced, dark, funny, and contains mind blowing creativity. It will keep you thinking long after reading.
