The Downloaded
ByPublisher Description
The new novel by Canada's top Science Fiction writer In 2059 two very different groups have their minds uploaded into a quantum computer in Waterloo, Ontario. One group consists of astronauts preparing for Earth's first interstellar voyage. The other? Convicted murderers, serving their sentences in a virtual-reality prison. But when disaster strikes, the astronauts and the prisoners must download back into physical reality and find a way to work together to save Earth from destruction. The Downloaded debuted in a six-month exclusive window as an Audible Original narrated by Academy Award-winner Brendan Fraser promoted by national TV and radio ad campaigns. This print edition is coming out immediately after Audible's exclusivity ends and is being supported by a six-city cross-Canada author book tour.

3.5
“The Downloaded is a serviceable, easy read that works well enough as a gap-filler, but never quite rises above that. The premise is interesting and there are moments where the story hints at something deeper or more impactful, yet the execution remains fairly straightforward and predictable. While it kept me reading and did what it needed to do in terms of pacing, it didn’t offer much that felt fresh or memorable once finished. Overall, it’s not a bad book by any means, just a fairly middling one — a 2.5-star read that passes the time but doesn’t leave a lasting impression.”
