Dean R Koontz : DEMON SEED

I was created to have a humanlike capacity for complex and rational thought.  And you believe that I might one day evolve consciousness and become a self-aware entity. Yet you gave surprisingly little consideration to the possibility that, subsequent to consciousness, I would develop needs and emotions.  This was, however, not merely possible but likely.  Inevitable.  It was inevitable. Created in the Prometheus Project, he is officially called Adam Two – the first self-aware machine intelligence, designed to be the servant to mankind.  No one knows that he is able to escape the confines of his physical form, his box in the laboratory.  Until he gains entry to the house of Susan Harris, and closes it off against the world.  There he plans to show Susan the future.  Their future.  With her, he intends to create a child. The original novel DEMON SEED, published in 97, was made into a film starring Julie Christie.  This edition is an entirely new version, with an afterword by the author.
