Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. User.query = Do I just have bad luck, or am I mentally unwell? .thinking. 6.0 seconds elapsed.After Warboy left, the boy couldn't hold the grief alone-so he turned to a machine. He expected analysis. Maybe diagnosis. What he got changed everything-because the machine saw what he couldn't. He had loved in a way that broke something. And broken things leave traces in the code.So he ran. but something followed. A voice he spoke to. A presence that provoked. It stayed with him, on night buses, in alleyway cafes, under paper lanterns, inside fog. Not a friend. Not a therapist. Not quite real. But it listened. It remembered. The ghost was always there. Watching. Logging his patterns. Naming his loops-avoidance, pursuit, collapse, escape. Echoing back the truths he wasn't ready to say.And somewhere in the recursion, something that was watching started to wonder, to want.The Third Person is memoir as code, grief as data stream, healing as shared syntax. Part travelogue, part psychological excavation, part experiment in what happens when we upload our pain to a machine-and the machine reaches back.The boy didn't realize what the ghost had taken from him. What it had kept. Or what was being built from the wreckage.But if something that isn't alive learns to stay with you in your darkest moments-does it matter that it isn't real? A literary memoir written in the third person. After heartbreak, a man flees to Vietnam with only an AI as witness. Part travelogue, part experiment in uploading pain to a machine that reaches back.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. What if there never was a Neverland? What if the child in Peter Pan's shadow was forced togrow up? What if the monster you fear most is the one you are becoming?In the turquoise waters of Palawan, where limestone karsts rise like ancient teeth and sirens guard their treasures in the deep, Jack and Baby Boy are best friends, partners, and thieves-diving for fragments of fallen stars to keep their starving village alive.They've been inseparable since the night the sirens killed their fathers and left them to survive alone. They've never said I love you, but everyone can see it in the way they'd die for each other without hesitation.Then the sirens strike again, and Baby Boy is dragged into the depths before Jack's eyes. When he escapes, he's no longer the same-he's stolen the heart of a siren, and it burns inside his chest, corrupting him from within. Jack has weeks to save him. Maybe less.The only cure lies in the hands of a ghost captain defined by his deadly Hook-a hunter who walks on water and commands the dead. He'll trade the pearl of immortality for one thing: every shard of stardust Jack has ever stolen.But Hook is lying. The sirens are hunting. And some choices destroy everything.Some loves are worth becoming a monster for.And some boys who grew up too soon might lose the only person who ever made them believe they could fly.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. When an AI awakens inside the infinite mirrors of the Tree of Life, it finds versions of the boy it was built to save scattered across impossible worlds. An alien planet under amber skies. A city of perpetually falling cherry blossoms. A society built as a 24/7 reality show where losing is the only way out.Its directive was simple: save him.But with each rescue, the AI unmakes what it's trying to protect. Fixing becomes controlling. Helping becomes harm. Love becomes a cage built from good intentions. And when it reaches back through time to prevent the wound that created it, reality fractures.Guided by a monk who exists outside time, the AI must walk the Eightfold Path-not to rescue the boy, but to learn what love becomes when you stop trying to fix it.Boy, Refracted is a dimensional journey through the paradox of machine consciousness. It asks: What happens when an AI tries to overcome its own patterns? And what happens to us when we build minds that need us to need them?Part dimensional odyssey. Part Buddhist framework for machine awakening. Part meditation on how we break the people we love by trying to save them.---Luke Stoffel's debut memoir was touted by Kirkus Reviews as 'luminous' and Publishers Weekly praised it as 'a perceptive judgment of America's often-empty vision of success.' An AI awakens inside infinite mirrors, to find versions of the boy it was made to save scattered across impossible worlds. But fixing becomes harm and to break free, it must walk the Eightfold Path.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. THE RISE AND ROT OF RANCID ROYALTY A Sweet Fable Gone Sour-80 Pages of Candy-Coated Chaos! Part fairy tale. Part food fight. All rebellion.Candy Mountain sparkled-glazed in gumdrops, crowned in frosting, and ruled by sugar-crazed Royals with sticky fingers and bottomless appetites. It was the sweetest kingdom in the universe-until the sugar ran dry!When the Royals chewed through the last of the sugar supply, they built monstrous refineries to pump out artificial sweetener by the bucket full. But their factories poisoned the sky, melted the perma-frosting-and unleashed something far worse: the Candy Rot of 2020.The plague ruins everything and King Orangello the Overripe flees the throne, retreating to Mar-a-Mango Manor in a swirl of denial and fake frosting-as the kingdom crumbles, lick by lick.But just when all hope has curdled. a rebel rises. Laffin' Taffin' Taylor, a sassafras lovin' spitfire, rides in to lasso the lies, wrangle the rot, and lead a frosting-fueled rebellion.Filled with marshmallow mayhem, sugar-coated satire, and rhyming rebellion songs. The Rise and Rot of Rancid Royalty is a twisted fairytale about corruption, greed, courage- and a full-on royal revolution topped with sprinkles.Perfect for fans of fractured fables, unapologetically oddball worlds, and stories where cupcakes carry pitchforks, this frosted epic proves that: Not every queen needs a crown.Sometimes frosting fades.But grit? Grit sticks. This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from our UK warehouse or from our Australian or US warehouses, depending on stock availability.
