Blindsight & Rifter series spolilers in this post:
Hello, I am a fan.
Blindsight and the Rifters series have vast overlap in terms of concepts and their exploration, such as neurochemical drugs and suppressors, virtual sex, induced multiple personalities, important decisions left to computerized minds, and the line about the signal already in the arm by the time a decision is made is in both Blindsight and Maelstrom.
When writing Blindsight, did you have this in mind? Do you have any insight into any significance of this overlap? Were you writing predominantly for readers who had or had not read your earlier books (or neither)?
I and a friend read Blindsight, and I took away that Vampires were without consciousness, though he thought that they were conscious. Are either, neither, or both of us coming to worthwhile conclusions?
