I was sweating it there for a while, but we made it! Random Origins came out today in both eBook and print versions. I am very excited about how these stories take us back to Our Cyber World‘s early days, and I’m hoping you can support me by grabbing a copy during these first few days.

To celebrate, I’m raffling off print copies of this story collection. To qualify, you will have to sign up (even if you’re already in my Reader’s Club).

About Random Origins

Enter a world where secret government projects employ sometimes reluctant hackers to secure key national Cyber infrastructure, co-opting drones and microwave ovens to do clever things along the way. In this world you will meet Julian Rogers before he washed out of said projects, and you will come face to face with artificial intelligence technologies whose creators will soon not control.

Together with Feral, the stories in Random Origins precede DEAD BEEF (Our Cyber World, book 1) and give insight into what happens in that full length novel. Come in and join a world of hacking while speeding along highways inside a semi trailer, of networked kamikaze drones, and a few other less than perfected tricks our protagonists tinker with.
