Moore has created an entrancing cautionary tale of what happens when technology outpaces society's ethical boundaries for it. - Kirkus Reviews 2/22/19All of Hollywood's top actors are dying for a role in the genius auteur, Welles Lang's latest production. Little do they know they may get their wish.Imagine a completely immersive world of entertainment where the sets and the actors exist in three dimensions, beyond virtual reality without need for any other device other than your own eyes, not only sight and sound, but aromas and tactile senses as well. Welles Lang employs technology that allows him to record and playback the performance of a living actor, but not only the performance, the performer's soul as well. He is driven mad by the side effect that makes him feel as though he is a God: death and control. Unsatisfied by the actors he's absorbed into his machine he continues to kill and control, over and over. He can only be stopped by a corrupted Avatar that exists in both the corporeal and digital worlds.
