Finished reading: The Mountain in the Sea by Ray Nayler 📚

OK, there is a lot going on in this one. Taking place in a futuristic dystopia where AI has run rampant, we follow three seemingly disconnected stories – a biologist studying sentient cuttlefish, a slave trade vessel controlled by an algorithm, and a cerebral hacker who can enter portals in artificial minds – that converge in the final pages. The overarching theme of ‘consciousness’ ties it all together. An enjoyable read, however I’m left with more questions than answers. I guess that’s the point, right?
