Souls and Circuits,
By orbis (Channelview, Texas) - See all my reviews
This review is from: DEUS X (Mass Market Paperback)
It may be short, but it's powerful. It centralizes around a dope-smoking computer whiz, a Cardinal, the Pope, an old preist, and the computer itself. What Spinrad does with these few characters is amazing. The questions they ask are, when the old preist dies and we upload his personality to the computer, does he have a soul? I'd say that this is far and away some of Spinrad's best stuff.

This review is from: DEUS X (Mass Market Paperback)
At sub 200 pages, it was a length just right for me. The theme boils down to a struggle to define and find faith in an increasingly scientific and technological time. It's my first Spinrad novel, but I don't read many books in the first place. So to say I made it through to book says a lot for it. If you have any interest in technology and religious philosophy I think you'll enjoy Spinrad's Deus X.
