James Bishop, author of A Way in the Wilderness, Rocket Man, and The Dissident, has released his next novel about computer hackers, b1tM0NK (pronounced "bitmonk").

In a world where curiosity and wonder are stifled in the name of greater security, and the Sabet Computer Corporation dominates the industry, an unlikely hero emerges. Michael discovers a secret that his grandfather left for him, and as he delves deeper and deeper into the mysterious gift, he is drawn into a world of technology he never imagined. With the help of Atilla, an artificial intelligence training system, Michael battles for freedom of information, open-source operating systems, and curiosity.

James Bishop's fourth book, b1tM0NK, imagines a world where our current technology and legal system could take us, and warns us of the pitfalls of exchanging freedom for security. While hackers around the world are being criminalized, James Bishop imagines a world in which the hacker is the hero.

A long-time champion of open-source software and computing, James draws from his decades of experience working in artificial intelligence and computer programming to tackle some of today's most controversial issues surrounding the hacking culture.

Mr. Bishop's b1tM0NK is written for the hacker and for those who yearn to understand the hacker culture.
