Dual Memory
- Sue Burke
GOODREADS BOOK BLURB:
Antonio Moro lost everything to the Leviathan League. Now he’s alone in a city on an Arctic island fighting the ruthless, global pirates with the chance to be the artist he always wanted to be. Unfortunately, he thinks it’s a cover story for his real purpose―spying on sympathizers.
When things look bleak, he discovers an unusual ally. His new personal assistant program, Par Augustus. It’s insolent, extroverted, moody, and a not-quite-legal nascent A.I.
Together they create a secret rebellion from unlikely recruits to defend the island from ideological pirates with entitlement and guns, and capitalist pirates with entitlement and money.

FIRST WORDS:
I want to feel everything, the light, the noise, the dark, even the cold and fear.

Dual Memory may be building to something, but it’s taking a very long time to get there. I keep starting and stopping, but it’s hard to make myself go back to reading, and neither of these characters (human or AI) is very appealing. Everyone is remote and unfeeling, and the narrative feels very sanitary. Despite the bombing and the injuries and everything else going on, I’m not getting any emotions. If they don’t care, why should I?
