Terms of Service by Craig W. Stanfill is a spectacular science fiction novel that defies the norms of all other science fiction books. The storyline is so interesting and absolutely different from other fantasy or science fiction I have read.
 
The story of the book is set in a time or era when artificial intelligence is dominant and several key and normal human characteristics, such as race and gender, are suppressed. The story tells about the control that artificial intelligence starts gaining over humans and the tools it utilizes to strengthen its position. A particularly interesting character in the book is Kim, who has worked for the Artificial Intelligence Company for five years, but things are not as she had imagined when she first bagged the job. This leads her to re-evaluate her position and take a stand on things that concern both AI and humans.
 
There are some things I hear people say, some things I imagine, or some things I read in books or watch in movies, and I say there is no way in the world that this can happen. However, on second thought, I consider all of the technological advancements that have occurred over the centuries and reconsider my position. This is one thing that I love about this book. This book's story contains some very vivid, wild imaginations, but it is written in such a realistic manner that one begins to consider the possibility of such happening in the distant future.
 
Terms of Service by Craig W. Stanfill has an extraordinary plot and would be appreciated by anyone who has the honor of reading it. However, there was one thing I did not like about the book, and that was the way basic characteristics like race and gender for humans were inhibited. It made some parts a bit more confusing than they would have been. However, I appreciate the author for placing "A Note On Pronouns" at the beginning of the book, which warns people about the inhibition of those characteristics and also explains why it was done.
 
In addition to the many exceptional qualities of this book, it also had no errors in it. Terms of Service by Craig W. Stanfill was exceptionally and professionally edited. I enjoyed and appreciated the way artificial intelligence was used in the book, especially how its dominance was expressed. I am rating it 5 out of 5 stars. I recommend this wonderful book to staunch lovers of fantasy and science fiction books.
