Virtual Shadows (eBook, ePUB)

Beschreibung

In a world dominated by the eerie glow of modern technology and the lurking shadows of AI and social media, "Virtual Shadows" unveils a chilling collection of short stories that explore the dark, hidden impact of our digital age.

These tales will draw you into a nightmarish realm where the internet of things collides with haunting echoes of age-old gothic horror.

From acclaimed author Roy Robson comes a macabre fusion of Black Mirror's dystopian twists and the timeless style of Edgar Allan Poe. Roaming the borderlands of sanity, these stories unravel the disturbing secrets hidden beneath the surface of our interconnected, and disconnected, existence.

Step into a realm where reality blurs with the virtual and some of the sinister consequences of our online actions are brought to life. As you navigate this haunting landscape, question your grasp on reality, and wonder if the boundaries between sanity and madness are as clear as they seem.

"Virtual Shadows" takes you on a spine-tingling journey through the hidden depths of the impact on the human personality of modern technology, where the most terrifying horrors may be lurking within your own mind.

Are you ready to confront the shadows of the digital age?

Autor

Roy and Garry Robson are, unsurprisingly, brothers from the Elephant and Castle, south east London.

Their father (variously a pig farmer, cab driver, haulage contractor and general ducker and diver) and mother (homemaker, cook and doctor's receptionist with a well-timed left hook) raised them and their siblings with some old fashioned south London working class values. These included hard work, respect for their elders and a willingness to duck and dive when required.

They have endeavoured, with varying degrees of success, to maintain the values their parents tried to instill in them. One day, whilst enjoying a beer or two, they decided to write a Crime Thriller Series. The gritty, pulsating and stylish London Large series is the result.

Roy lives in Bromley and works as a Service Delivery Manager for an International IT Consultancy. Garry lives in Krakow and is now, of all things, a sociology professor. Both career choices served as a source of confusion and humour to their parents, who were born and raised in the days before computers and sociology professors existed.

Although Harry 'H' Hawkins, the protagonist of the London Large novels, shares some of their old-fashioned values, he is not based upon Garry or Roy, neither of whom would survive the first chapter of a Harry Hawkins novel.
