About this listen
"The Silicon Joust: Knights of the Data Table" is a whimsical parody of the classic King Arthur and the Knights tale. Instead of King Arthur and the Knights, we have the valiant AIs assuming the role of knights. This silly medieval romance unfolds with AI characters as the main protagonists. Since the story is so short, this is all you are going to find here.
Whenever you find yourself in need of a brief respite from the mundane, tired, or simply craving a bit of amusement, this delightful book is the perfect choice. It will transport you to a world of wonder and leave you refreshed, ready to tackle your tasks with renewed vigor in about half an hour.

Lucas knows the perfect night entails just three things: video games, wine, and pad thai. Peanuts are a must! Other people? Not so much. Why complicate things when he’s happy alone? Then one day the apartment board, a vexing trio of authority, rings his doorbell. And Lucas’s solitude takes a startling hike. They demand to see his frying pan. Someone left one next to the recycling room overnight, and instead of removing the errant object, as Lucas suggests, they insist on finding the guilty party. But their plan backfires. Colossally.

Story
The True Story of The Coward Brothers follows two musical brothers – one English, one American, both the illegitimate sons of dubious parentage who may, as they claim to be, "one and half-brothers" – perhaps a reference to the disparity in their height and relative talents.

Story
Campbell Flynn, art historian, professor, and fêted fixture of the literati, always knew that when his life came crashing down, it would happen in public—yet he never imagined that a single year in London would expose so much. He’s never taken other people half as seriously as they take themselves, which is the first of his mistakes. The second is a new project: opportunistic and precisely calibrated to rake in a fortune.

Story
In Made in America, Bryson de-mythologizes his native land, explaining how a dusty hamlet with neither woods nor holly became Hollywood, how the Wild West wasn't won, why Americans say 'lootenant' and 'Toosday', how Americans were eating junk food long before the word itself was cooked up, as well as exposing the true origins of the G-string, the original $64,000 question, and Dr Kellogg of cornflakes fame.

What a fun book!
Super interesting idea for a fiction book. I must admit I'm not much of a fiction reader but I was thoroughly entertained by this short story. I love the imagination of the author and how the book connects modern society with an old story of King Arthur. Easy to listen to in one sitting. Narrator has a nice voice as well.

Interesting twist on a classic
This was an interesting twist on the classic King Arthur. The story was entertaining and the narrator kept me engaged. I don't normally listen to books like this but I listened while I worked and found it interesting and entertaining.

An entertaining marriage of old and new
This book was well narrated and funny! The parody was short, but entertaining. If you’re looking for a futuristic revamp of an old classic, look no further.

Interesting
This is interesting, and quite different than what I was expecting (something akin to Knights of the Round Table). The digital, electronic and AI mix to terms and the personification of them all was a little too much for me, but fun nonetheless. (Princess Algorina, her challenge from her father, the various the holographic images in data chambers, and then throwing love into it all). What was to become of AI Inifinity Matrix ? Thanks for introducing me to a whole other realm of fiction!
