This is nonfiction commentary. Purchase includes a free trial membership in the publisher's book club where you can select from more than a million books without charge. Chapters: The Machine's Child, the Graveyard Game, Mendoza in Hollywood, in the Garden of Iden, the Life of the World to Come, the Sons of Heaven, Sky Coyote, the Children of the Company.
