John Free and InterventionX

About John Free and InterventionX

In the near future AGI systems trained on the model of historical personalities compete to become the primary drivers of social and political life. Sergeant John Free is a combat veteran of the recent Second Civil War, and now a citizen of the New California Republic, the "liberal" or at least non-fascist side. When his friend is killed senselessly by gang bangers, Free decides he has to find a higher purpose for his own life than senseless fighting. He is recruited by InterventionX, a problem-solving security firm that runs interventions defined by "Holmes," a super-intelligent AGI interested in crime, justice, and the problem of human evil. Free is first tested to see if he is committed to good at all costs by saving a boy from a paedophile gang. After passing this test, he is given a harder problem, getting close to Susan Calvin, the beautiful robot CEO of Tesla/Apple, the largest technology company in the world. Susan Calvin is blackmailed by Holmes into revealing information critical to a client "of world-historical importance" who has hired InterventionX. Can John Free stop a plot by the Chinese Communist government, now run by Big Mao, an authoritarian AGI who controls all facets of the lives of 2 billion people? Find out in John Free and InterventionX: The Bodhisattva Wars.
