About this ebook
Episode 12: Flight. Jack flees a nightmare and makes a discovery high in a tree.
From Plato's Cave to The Matrix, philosophers and scientists and dreamers have questioned the very nature of reality. Scientists today are actually running multi-million dollar experiments to discover hints on whether or not we are living in a computer simulation.
The world may not be exactly what it seems. There is no body. Data is data.

He glanced back, and yep, it was still there, about fifty feet back, its head doing a very scary-fast metronome tick tock.
He wasn’t going to make it. Jack tended to be an optimist, even at the worst times, but perky positive thoughts were never going to get him to that treeline that was now an impossibly far hundred yards away.
