Alex Schuler began his career as a Navy pilot, then developed AI software for the commercial and defense sectors. His systems have been deployed on Navy ships and submarines, as well as NASA space shuttles. Alex turned to writing exciting and accessible science-based fiction to explore the ethical and philosophical implications of the technology he helped develop. His characters question their place and purpose in a rapidly changing world of ever-more-sophisticated-and potentially dangerous-technological advances.
Code Word Access, the first novel in Alex Schuler'sCode Wordseries, shot to #1 on Amazon in the sci-fi category.
An early fan ofStar Trek(the original, of course),The Outer Limits, and Sigourney Weaver in theAlien movies, you might find Alex wandering the halls of ComicCon or reading a great sci-fi book under redwood trees. Which book? MaybeDune (Frank Herbert) orStranger in a Strange Land (Robert Heinlein).
