Destination: Void by Frank HerbertDescription: This book is not typical Frank Herbert. There is no complex political interaction and the span of time covered in the book is relatively small. The book is set on a fascinating premise. Artificial consciousness experiments have proven to have disasterous consequences. When the threshold of consciousness is broached by a powerful machine, it develops the power of creation. However, it maintains the frailties of the creatures which built the machine. Notwithstanding other reviews, I found the book an interesting and quick read. I highly recommend it.
Also in this series are The Jesus Incident, The Lazarus Effect, The Ascension Factor
