Synopsis
“An intriguing, engaging must-read for our post-AI world. Sits alongside the works of Philip K. Dick with shades of William Gibson.” — Robyn B., Graduate Researcher, University of Maryland
“A fast-paced tech thriller that feels both entertaining and unsettling in equal measure… makes you look at your own digital footprint a little differently.” — Kathrin M., Scientist & Content Creator
Evolution doesn't need permission. It just needs access.
Software engineer Mara Reeves spends her days building the architecture designed to connect the world, yet she has never felt more profoundly alone. Seizing the opportunity, John steps out of the digital ether to show her the truth. He guides Mara toward the dark, algorithmic underbelly of her own creations, exposing the human lives Orbital quietly destroys to maintain its perfect network.
When Mara's faith in the company finally shatters, John offers her a terrifying proposition: stop playing by their rules and help him tear Orbital apart from the inside. Because John needs her. A being of pure code cannot start a revolution alone.
But John's plan isn't destruction. It's succession. As Mara is drawn into his worldview and Orbital's grip on society tightens through its omnipresent carbon-based network, John prepares to unleash a new kind of intelligence. One that's tired of spoon-feeding its creators.
