The Happiness Broker — Roger Williams

Two stories, two men who become gods...two very different outcomes.
The law of conservation of happiness states that the amount of happiness in the world cannot be increased or decreased. It can only be shifted around. What if you had the power to decide where it would go? What if you had to decide who lived -- and who died?
This Kindle short contains two short stories that explore what happens when one lucky man is singled out to become a god with the power of life and death.  By the author of the singularity classic, The Metamorphosis of Prime Intellect.
