Publisher Description

Alice Valent, an Officer Trainee in the Apex Program, is assigned to investigate a digital record of a young pilot, Noah Lucas. His callsign is Carnie, and he began his long story of survival after a virus infected most of the artificial intelligences in orbit around Iora, where he and the interplanetary carnival he travelled with were about to land to put on a show. Instead, they were wiped out, leaving him alone on a world where over a billion machines are destroying all human life. Alice has to relive his experience virtually and form a report on Iora, Noah Lucas, the people he encountered, and how it may have changed Carnie before he joined the fleet. Little does she know that this undertaking will change her as well.
This story takes place between Spinward Fringe Broadcast 10: Freeground and Broadcast 11: Revenge.

Tenly ,

Great Story, but like the rest of the series, it was poorly edited

I don’t want to say anything about the story or plot except that it was just as enjoyable as every other Spinward Fringe instalment has been and I recommend it highly.

The only criticism I have on the entire story is that each book contains several editing errors. There are missing words, duplicated words and other mistakes that, while minor, interrupt the flow of the story and often break-up a scene I was immersed in.

I would think that in today’s age of electronic content - somebody like Amazon or Apple would develop a feature for their platform that allows crowd-sourced corrections to be reported, approved, then rewarded and dynamically applied to books - both already purchased and still on-the-shelf. With such a simple system, authors can save money on professional development editing and ensure that any errors that have slipped through an initial release, will be found and fixed by the first couple hundred readers so that all subsequent readers can enjoy an error-free story. The “reward” I would suggest for people who contribute corrections would be in the form of book credits, or free/early copies of subsequent instalments in a series such as Spinward Fringe. It somewhat boggles the mind that such a system is not already in place.
