Demon Seed is a novel by the best-selling author Dean Koontz first published in 1973 and rewritten in 1997. Though Koontz wrote both versions of the novel and they share the same basic plot, the writing differs between the two in many ways. Both versions are first-person narratives — the earlier one is written from Susan's perspective, the later version is written from the perspective of an intelligent computer that imprisons her. A movie version of the book was released in 1977 with the same title.
