Publisher's summary

Grab all five thrilling books in the Complete Cyber Seed Compendium for one low price, in this great value sci-fi collection! Includes an exclusive new story which can only be heard in this collection.

Some inventions change the world. Others send it straight to hell....

When Kurt Jacobs imagines the ultimate gadget—one capable of replacing phones, credit cards, keys and TVs—the idea consumes his every waking moment. When the Sycamore corporation buys into Kurt's creation and The Seed becomes a reality, his every dream comes true.

Power like this has never existed.

The launch of The Seed, a powerful microchip implant that turns each user's palm into a fully functioning trackpad and effectively turns them into walking computers, breaks all sales records. Alongside the augmented reality UltraLenses which act as the system's display, it immediately renders all handheld devices obsolete.

But amid all of the awe and optimism, there is far more going on behind the curtain than Kurt or anyone else could ever have predicted....

This Complete Cyber Seed Compendium imaginatively chronicles The Seed's colossal impact on a society unprepared to handle it, from the high hopes of launch day to the breakneck descent into corporate dystopia. Remarkable apps and groundbreaking features that make life easier and more enjoyable, unprecedented surveillance and privacy abuses in a world where your eyes can no longer be trusted, and both sides of a timely story unfold in this complete series collection.

couldn't finish book 1

I couldn't finish the first book. I liked elements but the cycle of outrage and acquiescing grew tiresome.

Intriguing novel that is unique and well developed

I was expecting this to be very derivative of "Ready Player One" and similar works. This was entirely unique. This is a good story and offers important social commentary on the modern techno-monopolies and the increasing economic disparities in our current time. It also touches on the human condition in the age of social media and extrapolates out. The antagonist in the story is well developed and feels like a composite character of many folks I have met in real life and is likely a composite of our current Silicon Valley oligarchs. Craig develops the world and the characters within the world excellently. I enjoyed books 1,2, and 4 the most. I skipped portions of books 3 and 5.

I really wanted to like this book.

Kunt is the definition of pessimistic. I couldn’t finish the book because miserable people are mentally exhausting.
