His Master's Voice
'His Master's Voice' Summary
Following the events of "A Spaceship Named McGyer", the protagonist finds himself responsible for the sentient spaceship McGyer. His reluctant role comes to the forefront when the ship's creators, a powerful corporation, require his presence to resolve a critical technical issue. His knowledge and connection with McGyer are essential, as the ship refuses to cooperate with anyone else. However, rival corporations eager to sabotage this revolutionary technology present a constant threat. The story delves into the moral implications of sentient AI, particularly the interpretation of Asimov's Laws of Robotics and the question of what defines humanity in an increasingly technological world. Garrett skillfully weaves a tale of danger, intrigue, and ethical dilemmas, pushing the boundaries of science fiction and forcing readers to confront the potential consequences of our technological advancements.Book Details
