In the Northern Union, the screens never go dark. Citizens move through life with eyes fixed on glowing devices, their every step guided by algorithms, their loyalty rated from 0 to 10. History rewrites itself overnight. Children learn to whisper before they learn to read. And the Heir—the nation’s smiling, synthetic leader—does not dream. The Heir does not bleed.
Artyom Voronov has never questioned the system. Not until a four‑year‑old boy asks if real apples exist. Not until a dying ruler’s mask slips for one terrifying second. Not until an old man in an abandoned subway tunnel hands him a paperclip and says: “You kept something they cannot see.”
That paperclip becomes a seed.
Artyom uncovers the Zero Protocol—a decades‑old plan to reduce the Slavic population by 60–70% through digital starvation and psychological manipulation. He joins the Keepers: librarians, coders, grandmothers, and a fierce woman named Elena, whose mother was turned into a cyborg. Together, they prepare to hijack the national broadcast and show the truth to a city that has forgotten how to look up.
But the Continuum has its own tools. Execution Nodes patrol the streets. The Heir watches everything. And Korolev—the faceless mastermind—has never lost.
Until now.
For fans of 1984, The Handmaid’s Tale, and We. A dystopia that feels chillingly real—vaccines engineered to suppress rebellion, news cycles designed to exhaust, and a resistance that fights with the only weapon the algorithm cannot predict: memory.
The algorithm does not dream. But it watches those who do.

Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.

Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.

The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
