The Rapture Effect

Carver, Jeffrey A. The Rapture Effect. (c) 1987. New York: Doherty, n.d. "A TOR Book." [S. F.] Book Club Edition.

An AI computer attempts to stop fighting a war against an alien species by enlisting the aid of a brilliant computer programmer and an artist. The two humans enter the "rapture field," a direct mind-computer link, and reprogram the computer to allow it to alter its own programming. Between dealing with humans and seeking peace with the aliens, the computer suffers a nervous breakown. Ends happily with all the significant characters, including the computer, being taught by the artist how to dance. See JC's Infinity Link, this section. Rev. Janice M. Eisen, Aboriginal S. F. Sept.-Oct. 1988: 48-49.
