As part of the blog tour for iFrankenstein, I have a preview of the first chapter and a digital copy of the book for a lucky reader of my blog.
Here is more info about the book!
"iFrankenstein"
by Bekka Black
Release Date: Sep 16, 2012
Summary from the publisher:
Frankenstein comes to life for the wired generation.
Following her critically-acclaimed iDrakula, award-winning author Bekka Black breathes life into a modern re-telling of iFrankenstein, using only text messages, web browsers, tweets, and emails.
Homeschooled teenager Victor Frankenstein is determined to write his own ticket to independence: a chatbot to win the prestigious Turing prize and admission to the high tech university of his choice. He codes his creation with a self-extending version of his own online personality and unleashes it upon the internet. But soon he begins to suspect his virtual clone may have developed its own goals, and they are not aligned with Victor’s. The creature has its own plan, fed by a growing desire to win darker and more precious prizes: unfettered power and release from loneliness.
As the creature’s power and sentience grows and its increasingly terrible deeds bleed over from the online world into the real one, Victor must stop his creation before his friends and humanity pay the ultimate price.

I've been wanting to check out iDracula for awhile now, so it's cool that she has a second one (which I heard is even BETTER).
