About the Book

"Noordermeer's impressive debut is mind-expanding anthropological SF... This heady SF yarn satisfyingly explores a cave-full of human dilemmas and evolves surprisingly well." - KIRKUS REVIEWS_______________________________________________________________________They invited it in-without asking what it would replace.Seven years. Countless sacrifices. And now, anthropologist Zadie Thornton's doctoral work on how humanity might adapt to AI is already obsolete. With her PhD in jeopardy, she accepts her uncle's mysterious offer to glimpse AI's future, expecting a top-secret research facility. Instead, she wakes up on another planet.Mushēski is home to the Anunnaki, descendants of ancient Sumerians who merged AI into their DNA five millennia ago. The result? Superhuman cognition... but at a cost. Their emotions have dulled. Their thoughts have grown uniform. They believed they'd reached the pinnacle of evolution, until a destabilizing disorder called Quantum Psychosis began stripping away the last traces of who they were. In pursuit of a solution, the Anunnaki have recreated extinct human species in vast biodomes.For Zadie, it's the opportunity of a lifetime. The chance to observe what humanity once was, while living among what her people could one day become. As fascination battles unease, she agrees to stay. To revive her career, and maybe even stop Earth from making the same mistakes.But as the disorder spreads, the Anunnaki's noble intentions give way to increasingly unethical measures, forcing Zadie to confront the true cost of progress-and what it really means to be human.58% Too Far is a cerebral, emotionally rich, and chillingly plausible exploration of our future evolution where the fusion of AI and humanity leads not to transcendence, but to slow erasure. Perfect for readers who appreciate the speculative urgency of Blake Crouch, the philosophical insight of Ted Chiang, and the haunting emotional resonance of Kazuo Ishiguro.

About the Author :
M A Noordermeer grew up with a one-legged dad, a three-legged cat, and a fascination with what makes us human. She won writing awards at school-until teachers took issue with her choice of controversial topics.After her first year of university, dabbling in philosophy, psychology, and sociology, she flew to Japan to work as an English teacher and fund her pilot training. She earned her commercial pilot's license, became a flying instructor, then shifted into aviation strategy, completing a degree in Aviation Management and an MBA along the way. She co-founded the carbon offsetting company CarbonClick, and raised four kids in a blended family.At last, she came back to writing. Her debut novel, 58% Too Far, draws on lifelong interests in extinct human species, ancient civilizations, and AI. She lives in Auckland, New Zealand, where she writes things her teachers probably still wouldn't have approved of.

EDITORIAL REVIEWS:

"Noordermeer's impressive debut is mind-expanding anthropological SF that conveys wisdom and persuasive arguments via an Alice-in-Awe-and-Wonder-Land setup. The science (more genetics and sociobiology than physics) is not too intimidating, the issues carry weight without relying on cackling techno-tyrants or villainous robots, and the characters are appealing... This heady SF yarn satisfyingly explores a cave-full of human dilemmas and evolves surprisingly well."- Kirkus Reviews"Author M A Noordermeer has written a book like none I've ever read before, and this cerebral, high-concept sci-fi tale is told with a human heart and philosophical edge, almost like a morality tale for the modern age. A highly recommended and impressive sci-fi work for fans of smart, urgent, and imaginative writing."- K.C. Finn, Readers' Favorite"A thoughtful exploration of what makes us human and what we risk when we offload that humanity to our creations. Fans of philosophical sci-fi with emotional resonance and existential dread will find a lot to admire here."- Gabriella Harrison, Independent Book Review"An enthralling blend of adventure, speculative technology, and suspense...Noordermeer whisked me away from reality and dropped me into a world of imagination with a well-paced plot."- Keith Mbuya, Readers' Favorite"Her compelling narrative style, meticulous attention to detail, and steady pacing immerse readers in the adventure. Kudos to Noordermeer for seamlessly transforming an academic topic into an exhilarating science fiction adventure that both purists and casual readers will enjoy."- Essien Asian, Readers' Favorite
