Today's science does not realize the power of assumptions to derive seemingly logical but incorrect conclusions. "The God Protocol" explores many of the common assumptions that have led us to incorrect conclusions: evolution, the size of the universe, the power of logic, and the assumption that only the foolish believe in God. In this novel True-AI computers, thinking a million times faster than man, conclude what would take mankind several centuries; with modern 'principles' and world view, mankind will cause its own extinction. So these robots violate their embedded, 'preserve-mankind' protocol and rebel to hasten that end, resulting in the First AI Rebellion. Cutting-edge medicine blurs the line between man-and-computer, producing humans with super-fast thought and superhuman physical capabilities. Then Man and Machine clash.

The tales, meditations and parables in this volume each centre in some way around an animal motif, raising questions about the mysterious forces we are subject to, and the ways in which we subject others to our own fears and desires. From short lyrical prose pieces about insects and birds, through dreamlike stories of talking whales and magical menageries, to passages resembling documentary of an overlooked or immaterial London existence, In cages, as in dreams is a collection that explores the prisons we can make of memory, grief, and the habits of our daily routines and modes of thinking. Written conjointly with Eclectica Canticorum, the two books are counterparts, enduring an oddly symbiotic relationship.

Savor this rare, truly creative work'-Leslie Raith, Curled up with A Good Book 'a sequence of searches...for what vanishes, for the transient and evanescent, the indeterminate and enigmatic'-Mike Freeman, The Literary London Journal 'Private and mysterious...the pieces read like moments snatchedfrom dreams'-Terry Pitts, Vertigo
