Where will our obsession with being always online, always connected, take us? How will the absolute trust we place in technology evolve? In the future there will be the System, one global, singularly autonomous Artificially Intelligent entity that controls every aspect of human life. Wallace Blair is a normal man with a normal family life, who lives in this apparent Utopia. That is until he is sent on an innocent errand which escalates rapidly into a downward spiral as the System conspires to rip everything from him that he holds dear. System-With his face in the Sun deals with the age old topics of absolute power and corruption. It illustrates that paranoia, corruption and evil are not the preserve of humans, they exist in any entity, biological or artificial, that obtains absolute power.
