About this ebook

A hard science fiction short story trilogy that spans the universe...

Disgusted by a series of climate disasters that have destroyed humanity, the ruling artificial intelligences decide that a planetary surface is unsafe for living species. The all-knowing computer brains begin a multi-million year quest to find a safer home for the human race. But the unpredictable humans they resurrect have their own ideas.

Who will decide the future? Humans or their inventions?

Roger Williams, author of the influential singularity classic The Metamorphosis of Prime Intellect, returns with this complete edition of The Mortal Passage Trilogy, including all three classic novellas-- "Passages in the Void," "The Passage Home," and "Mortal Passage." There's also a bonus story, "Rite of Passage."

Ratings and reviews

Big fan of Roger Williams, I loved The Metamorphosis of Prime Intellect and looked forward to his other works. Did not disappoint, great piece of Hard Sci-Fi.

Not written as a standard trilogy of a continued story but different timelines and viewpoints of similar events. The author has done a brilliant job in one story of writing from a perspective 'not of a human' and crossing nearly unfathomable lengths of time. An excellent journey
