Neuro-Divergence by Michael Dalton is a science fiction series published in 2022. The two books, The Escherian Core and The Kafkaesque Passage, explore virtual reality and altered states of consciousness through a science fiction lens.
The literary references in the titles hint at the series’ interest in perception, reality, and disorientation. The Escherian Core evokes impossible geometries while The Kafkaesque Passage suggests surreal, nightmarish transformations. The series shows Dalton working in a more cerebral mode than his action-focused fantasy work.
