"ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS I'VE READ IN A WHILE. AS AN AVID ISAAC ASIMOV READER I WOULD PUT EXOTIQA RIGHT IN WITH HIM, WITH A LITTLE MORE ACTION" -Avid Isaac Asimov Reader "SIMILAR THEMES TO ISAAC ASIMOV'S WORK, BUT MORE GENTLE AND HAS MORE ACTION." -Amazon Reviewer."VERY WELL WRITTEN! SO HARD TO PUT DOWN!" -Amazon Reviewer "WOW, WOW, WOW! NOTHING SHORT OF GREAT!" -Amazon Reviewer "THE STORY HAS SEVERAL DIFFERENT LAYERS GOING ON AND I ENJOY THAT LEVEL OF COMPLEXITY. THIS AUTHOR HAS DONE A WONDERFUL JOB OF OVERLAYING HER WORLD ONTO OURS. I WILL BE READING A LOT MORE OF THIS AUTHOR’S WORK." -Amazon Reviewer "ABSOLUTELY LOVE YOUR BOOKS!" -Amazon Reviewer"IF ANYONE KNOWS ME OR FOLLOWS MY REVIEWS THEN YOU KNOW THAT I LOVE A GOOD DYSTOPIAN OR SCIENCE FICTION NOVEL. SO WHEN I KEPT HEARING ABOUT EXOTIQA, I JUST HAD TO READ IT. AND BOY, AM I EVER GLAD I DID!" -Amazon ReviewerEXOTIQA - Book 1THIRTY - Book 2 SPHERE - Book 3 ...Elon Musk announced the NUERAL LACE, a real life interface for the brain, designed by Telsa and SpaceX. My book was written in 2015, released in 2017. My interface is the SLAB. EXOTIQA is the program downloaded into the SLAB. Real life and my fiction are eerily similar! REVIEWS:"The difference of narration between the eyes of a human and that of a robot is really fun. It is distinct and well thought out, of how each being would feel and see things." -Francine"The book explores a new avenue in robotics with emotional attachments starting to develop between robots and even between humans and bots. On their quest to prevent the destruction of the world as we know it, our heros set off on a journey to ImaTech to destroy Exotiqa, meeting up with some interesting characters and becoming involved in a lot of action including an exciting car chase worthy of any Speilberg movie. In fact. I thoroughly enjoyed the book despite it being designed to appeal to a young adult audience, but then I am big kid at heart. In my opinion this is a great read for anyone of any age. A warining shot across the bows of AI advocates. Marvelous!" -KenI read the entire exotica series! It was awesome. Looking for the next series that you wrote, Quantum State. You are one of the few female writers of science fiction that really gets it ... I am more into the science fiction from a woman's POV because it differs from what men think. You have different point of view. You solve problems differently and think of interactions with people differently. That is what makes the whole orbit. That is why I like your writing so much! -Mike Brown
