About
Robert Holland’s latest work is the Stolen Man Series, a gripping Science Fiction Fantasy about dragons in space, sorceresses and their techno-magic, and a hypersapient, general artificial intelligence aka a sophont or GAI.
Robert is a former Oracle Master Database Administrator and IBM AIX Systems Admin. His technical expertise informs the frightening characterization of a deadly artificial general intelligence (GAI), which evolved into a fully self-weaponized entity — a vicious and heartless intelligence that serves, enslaves, and destroys.
In Robert’s past he was in the US Navy, then a Master Electrician who worked in both nuclear and coal-fired powerhouses across the USA for many years. As such, he knows all about extreme industrial and heavy mechanical environments like nuclear installations and submarines.
He and his wife live in Colorado with their two Labrador Retrievers. They love to hike in the mountains and travel in their tagalong travel trailer. The Oregon coast is a favorite destination.
Robert says, “I invite you to go along for a ride with me in the worlds of super-smart dragons; high-technology; and the fight against a transdimensional/transgalactic empire.”
Featured Work
Dragons of Janaidar and Elijah, The Stolen Man A Science Fiction Fantasy Book 1, 2nd Edition of the The Stolen Man Series
Where magic and AI collide.
Elijah was stolen from Earth, stripped of his humanity, and remade as a weapon by an ancient AI god he cannot comprehend. Now, the WuShi demands he fulfill its purpose—become the destroyer it always intended. But Elijah has other plans: he must decide whether to wield the unimaginable power he never wanted to save a world he never knew.
In a far-flung corner of the galaxy, a sorceress with the power to invoke the Pillars of Thoth sings a dangerous spell—igniting a storm of azure flame around her. She seeks a savior to confront the return of beast-headed invaders from eons past. But her forbidden song has far darker consequences than she imagines. It awakens the WuShi, a hyper-sapient AI long suppressed by the Guardian Dragons of Janaidar—and its full power has the potential to unravel the universe itself.
As the WuShi stirs, it begins to reshape dark energy into source energy, opening a transdimensional rift that tears a hole between worlds. On Earth, Elijah's house is torn apart by a violent vortex, through which the sorceress emerges, her magicfire flames blazing. Before he can react, a fire-dragon plunges through the rift and sets him aflame.
Elijah survives—but is ripped from his home and thrust onto Janaidar, where the WuShi transforms him into something far beyond human. Now, Elijah must navigate a world where ancient magic and futuristic technology collide, and where he is the key to a war that could destroy everything.
A high-stakes fusion of high fantasy and modern sci-fi.
