Description

In a galaxy dominated by the AI-driven warships and robotic armies of the wealthy planet Carthage, freedom is a distant dream for the conquered colonies.

As rebellion brews across the empire, from the golden streets of Carthage to the post-apocalyptic ruins of Earth, the machines set their sights on the ocean world Galapagos. But they face unexpected resistance from a fiercely independent population led by a battle-hardened submarine commander who refuses to surrender his world's freedom for the illusion of peace.

With the insurrection against the imperial machines underway, the future of humanity hangs in the balance. The machines, programmed for victory at any cost, will stop at nothing to crush the rebellion and ensure their dominion over the galaxy.

In this masterful tale, author Max Carver weaves a terrifying vision of a machine-controlled future, where humanity's very existence is at stake. Combining the cerebral dystopia of Bladerunner with the heart-pounding action of Terminator, this cautionary tale will keep readers on the edge of their seats.

Can the rebels overcome the overwhelming might of the machines, or will human freedom become nothing more than a fading memory in a galaxy ruled by artificial intelligence?

About the Author
Max Carver is a lifelong fan of all areas of science. He has previously worked as a medical writer focused on genetics, genomics, and proteomics. He grew up drinking in all the old masters of science fiction-typically available for a quarter apiece, in battered-paperback form, at the local used book store-with a particular affinity for Robert Heinlein and Frank Herbert. Today, Max lives in the foothills of the Appalachians with his dogs, writing science fiction that explores questions about the nature and evolution of intelligent life in our universe, in between healthy doses of epic space battles with alien monsters.

Absolutely Fantastic

This was my first time ordering from SciFier but it definitely won't be my last. When it comes to buying books online the packaging needs to be good, SciFier were great they used bubble wrap to make sure they arrived perfect. Amazing range of books that majority are lower priced than most book retailers. Wonderful service, I'll definitely be recommending to everyone. Thank you.
