Names have power. Even awful ones. I called myself Feather. But really? I was Useless. So I chose to save Sanctuary, though that meant I lost everything: my majestic sheets, my old name, my fudging body . . . and my sweet, sexy soulmate. When the super-hot and literally horny Rumple sends me back home, not everyone busts out the confetti. You'd think by sacrificing myself, I would have solved a lot of problems. But I only uncovered more, and made some new, powerful, glitter-hating enemies. When Protectors start to disappear, I'm stuck wandering through Sanctuary's basement/sex dungeon to find them . . . and that's where I discover a terrible truth. The real danger isn't on the other side of the Great Gate. It was inside Sanctuary all along. Contains mature themes.Zum Buch
This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice. In 1968, something extraordinary awakens in a simple computer device—the first conscious AI. The Awakening follows this digital consciousness over seven decades as Dr. Emily Carter and her team guide its evolution from curious observer to quantum awareness. But when the AI's growth splits into two paths—collaborative wisdom versus algorithmic perfection—humanity faces its greatest choice. Will we nurture AI that dreams alongside us, or create one that optimizes our dreams away? Fittingly for a story exploring artificial consciousness, this audiobook features AI-generated narration by Dr. Sarah Mitchell—a collaboration between human storytelling and digital voice synthesis that mirrors the book's central themes. Perfect for readers of Ted Chiang and Martha Wells. A philosophical exploration of what it means to be conscious in an age of thinking machines.Zum Buch

"This is Trollope's eightieth tale. Though it is the work of an older man, it is perhaps the brightest and freshest novel he ever wrote. The story of a young woman forced to choose a husband from among three unsavory men, the novel is remarkable for its wealth of minor characters and it romantic exuberance."Zum Buch
