Thanks to Kenyon author services for sending me a copy of this collection for my honest opinion

This was such a thought-provoking short story collection. It really invites the reader to the near future to consider how advancing technology will change everything. From communication, heath, and criminal justice systems to much more. 

Some of these stories were shocking and frightening with how these systems can be corrupted and manipulated. They show a utopia future as well as a dystopian future. However, they also showed how they can help the future of humanity and connect everyone together.

I enjoyed reading this collection and would encourage anyone who likes science fiction to give it a read.
