Pat Cadigan is a young adult fantasy, horror, and science fiction author from London. The author was born in New York even though she spent much of her childhood in Massachusetts.

Cadigan was diagnosed with an incurable and inoperable form of cancer known as recurrent endometrial cancer in 2014. At that time, the doctors gave her no more than two years but she surprised most people including her doctors.
After palliative chemotherapy the following year, her doctors were forced to revise their diagnosis to give a more rosy picture. Having previously survived a case of severe anaphylactic shock, she believes she was put on earth to do great things.

She usually asserts that it is not a completely unpleasant or disappointing experience. In fact, she will often include some funny anecdotes.
Apart from the blog she also loves to interact with fans and readers on Facebook and Twitter where she is even more outrageous.
When Alien 3 was shelved in 2021, Cadigan took the screenplay by William Gibson. She would then go on to pen a very popular novel of the same title.
Gibson would, later on, write another version of the Aliens 3 movie that was finally accepted by producers.
According to Cadigan the second script which was turned into a graphic novel is just as good and should be read by any fan of the graphic novel.
Even though she was a cancer patient, she was pissed off and inconvenienced by the global pandemic and had to spend most of 2020 at home. But she has never been one to not take advantage of such an opportunity and got a lot of writing done.
She was not been seen much in 2021 as she got used to the indoors, where she wrote a lot of novels. Cadigan would go on to produce even more titles in 2022 and shows no signs of slowing down any time soon.
For her work, she has been nominated and won several awards over the years including the Scribe Award in 2020, which she won for her novelization.
According to the author, the most important person in her success has to be Ella J Chappell her editor that made it possible for her to produce her best work.
Similar to Gardner Dozois and Ellen Datlow, her editor has become one of the most influential people in her novels.

Dore Konstatin is a homicide detective who has been charged with investigating the connection between an IRL murder and the VR simulation that the man had been found with.
On the other hand, is a young Japanese woman named Yuki that has just been displaced by a terrible natural disaster that devastated Japan. She is now looking for Tom her friend that has gone missing.
She believes that he has either been killed or taken as a slave by Joy Flower one of the most formidable madames in Japan. She has been known for abusing and using young handsome men in her club.
Their unrelated investigations take them into New Yawk Sitty, a virtual and strange post-apocalyptic wasteland.
Since they do not have any VR or AR experience, they are very vulnerable to eerie shifts in the landscape. If they can learn these complex systems, they may just be able to escape the world they find themselves in.
It is an interesting story with a lot of symbolism, clues, and puzzles thrown into a great mystery.
“Dervish is Digital,” by Pat Cadigan follows Dore Konstatin, the detective lieutenant who could not have a harder job. She has been put in charge of the department of Artificial Reality and TechnoCrime division.
While it sounds interesting, she only has three people in his team that have to work a huge caseload of some very complex cases that most police detectives believe are impossible to solve.
It would not have been that bad but her life is complicated by the fact that she also has to deal with the case of a stalker. Susannah Elle has reported that Hasting Dervish her ex-husband has been stalking her.
It does seem implausible given that Dervish is a very powerful and rich man with better things to do. But things Could not be any more different.
However, the more Konstatin investigates, the more she is convinced that the woman’s allegations may be true. It does seem that Dervish has been committing crimes by trading places with an Artificial Intelligence.

When Ido stumbles upon a partial body with a working heart and a head, he fixes her up and gives her the name Alita. Even though she has amnesia, Odo believes she is special.
From here on, she tells the story of a beautiful journey. Alita goes into a bizarre world with nightmares and new wonders and also gets flashes of her past life.
