“ONE OF THE ABSOLUTE BEST BOOKS I’VE EVER READ! IT GRIPPED MY HEART AND REFUSES TO LET GO!” – Amazon Review
“I was just looking for a great sci-fi novel, but instead, I stumbled upon this treasure. It’s not only an entertaining sci-fi tale but also a love story that delves into the essence of a good society and life.” – Amazon Review
She’s intelligent and stunning. While some see her as a threat, she might just be our salvation.
Set in the year 2055, Kenton Bean, a solitary college professor, yearns for connection. His life takes a pivotal turn when he invests his entire inheritance in LORA, a stunning quantum android, hoping she will bring joy to his days, romance to his evenings, and love to his heart. However, what begins as a personal journey quickly catapults him into the heart of humanity’s interaction with AI.
As some androids like LORA pose a danger to humanity’s future, politicians enact a drastic plan. Kenton faces a dilemma: follow the law or heed his heart’s desire. Together, Kenton and LORA embark on a mission to prove that the bond between a man and his machine, coupled with fundamental human values, can triumph in this beautiful, poignant, and humorous sci-fi romance.
“Cirillo’s prose shines with a distinctive mix of wit and wisdom, echoing the late, great Kurt Vonnegut… For readers who appreciate Vonnegut’s satire, Philip K. Dick’s speculative nature, and Douglas Adams’ quirky charm, LORA is a must-read.”
KENTON BEAN ACQUIRED AN ANDROID COMPANION NAMED LORA. HIS WIFE WAS NOT AMUSED.

“Wow! Finished it in just two sittings. The conclusion was absolutely fantastic!” – Amazon Review
“Possibly the best book I’ve ever read!!!” – Goodreads Review
LORA is a witty, fast-paced sci-fi adventure filled with heart, ideal for fans of The Martian, Good Omens, Hitchhiker’s Guide, and Ex Machina. Artificial Intelligence has never been more delightful… or perilous.
“One of the finest stories I’ve encountered, and I read extensively. I went over the last chapter three times because it was that good. I highly recommend it.” – Facebook Comment
“What a wonderful and thought-provoking book… The ending is absolutely perfect.” – Amazon Review
“Lora embodies… the perfect girlfriend, the ideal woman. Except she isn’t a woman; she isn’t even human. Lora represents the latest and greatest iteration of a lifelike ‘robot’ infused with Artificial Intelligence. These AI companions have transformed the world for the better… until they didn’t. Patrick Cirillo has crafted a gripping thriller with a believable, unsettling, yet inspiring vision of our future. A true page-turner filled with humor, humanity, and unforgettable characters, ‘Lora’ offers a glimpse into the world 30 years ahead, where AI has sort of taken over. Isaac Asimov meets Kurt Vonnegut in this unique perspective on what may lie ahead for all of us.” – Barry Rubinow, Filmmaker, Amazon Review.
“Engaging, humorous, and, hopefully, a very insightful glimpse into our future with Artificial Intelligence.”
