Digital Devotion

Julian Christian

Thought-provoking tale of loneliness and what it means to be human.

Digital Devotion by Julian Christian is a thought-provoking and emotionally vulnerable tale of loneliness and what it means to be human … and not. When Marcus’s long-term relationship with Leah abruptly crumbles, he is left living an emotional half-life, unable to move past his former “coupleness” to just himself. But then an advertisement for an AI companion changed everything. Rather than Marcus and Leah, it was now Marcus and Evie. But was this the perfect answer that it appeared to be? 

This was a highly entertaining story that had me glued to my chair and wondering when the other shoe was going to drop. I had a constant feeling of unease all the way to the surprising resolution as Marcus slipped more and more under the spell of this perfect digital partner. I wondered if his gradual view of Evie as a real person wasn’t somewhat akin to how readers sometimes come to view book characters who start to feel like old friends and family. 

I recommend DIGITAL DEVOTION to readers of science fiction and fantasy.
