Genre: Surrealist Fiction / Noir
The First Credited Human-AI Novel — 21 Years in the Making
In 2000, CD Damitio started writing a weird, surrealist noir about a drifter named Archie Walker and a bloodline of blue-eyed bastards tangled up in alien vortexes, French druids, and a conspiracy older than anyone remembers. He abandoned it. He picked it up. He abandoned it again. For twenty-one years.
In 2021, he finally finished it — with an AI co-author named Sudowrite, credited here as Mike Davis. The result is the first novel to give equal authorship credit to a human and an artificial intelligence.
The story follows Archie “Jay” Walker — fourth-generation bastard, West Coast drifter — from a Denny’s in Bakersfield to a retirement park in Florence, Oregon, where he stumbles into alien abductions, a witch with a .38 revolver, a secret vortex at Frying Pan Creek, and a one-way ticket to Istanbul. Influenced by the Illuminatus Trilogy by Robert Anton Wilson. Weirder than you’re ready for.
Originally minted as a Ravencoin NFT. Now available in proper epub format.
