chibigraph 's review for:
The Mountain in the Sea
by Ray Nayler
I enjoyed this so much.
The author had themes of what it means to be conscious as opposed to intelligent and problems of communication with an alien creature.
Without diverging from those themes he explored them through several narrative threads and examples of artificial and natural intelligence and consciousness. The threads all converge at the end in a satisfying way.
I liked the book "quotes" before each chapter which were thought provoking and clearly well researched and considered.
