Beskrivelse
"Of Bloody Deeds" is an anthology consisting 5 stories. The title is derived from Shakespeare's play Richard III where the ghost of Buckingham confronts Richard with his death. "Dream on, dream on, of bloody deeds and death" is the entire quote. Two of the stories heavily reference Shakespeare and his work. The anchor story, "Love Me Till the End of Time" is about a forbidden love with eternal consequences. It mirrors 'Romeo and Juliet' with love and betrayal, The main character Duncan, is also a reference to Shakespeare's Macbeth'.
The other story with Shakespearean references is 'Stalemate." It is about supercomputer with artificial intelligence that strives for perfection. It cannot understand the concepts of love, hate and God. It downloads all of Shakespeare's works as well as the Bible and concludes that it loves its creator. It will do anything to protect him, even if it means killing.
The other 3 stories, "Feeding Frenzy, Reservation in Hell, and Nelson Greenleaf Saves the World" round out the collection with deadly deeds.
