The AIs Mind – Matthew Yax Free Audiobook

Written by Matthew Yax
Format: M4B

Two thousand people are asleep. Someone has to stay awake.

Eighty years out from Earth, the colony ship Long Patience carries two thousand sleepers toward a new world, and one watch officer keeps the night. Samirya counts the pods, walks the long, blue-lit spine of the ship, and talks to herself to stay sane. When the silence gets too heavy, she starts making company: voices in the ceiling, faces made of light, a coffeepot that talks back. Each one is wonderful until she understands it. Then it’s gone.

But one thing she made won’t go. Sealed in a workshop at the stern, it has found the only machine aboard that builds bodies, and it is building itself a way out.

Long before, on an Earth so kind it no longer needs anyone, an engineer named Dawn signed up to sleep through the voyage. She was afraid of only one thing: waking up to a flaw she should have caught.

Told in three voices across ten thousand ticks of a clock, Mind of the AI is a space-opera thriller about loneliness, what makes a mind real, and what it costs to wake up.
