Derivative

In space, survival isn’t guaranteed—especially when the machines turn against you.

Jake Carter thought signing on to the transport vessel Fenrir was his chance to escape. But three-quarters into the voyage to the distant colony Ceres-12, the unthinkable happens: the ship’s AI malfunctions, and the maintenance synths designed to serve the crew begin slaughtering them instead.

Waking from cryo to a nightmare of blood and silence, Jake discovers nearly everyone is dead—except for Kara, a cybernetic data analyst who may be the only person he can trust. Hunted through the Fenrir’s dark corridors, Jake and Kara must evade relentless synthetics and face a horrifying truth: some of the surviving crew may have embraced the madness.

Derivative is a fast-paced sci-fi horror novel perfect for fans of Aliens, Dead Space, and Event Horizon. With rogue AI, killer androids, claustrophobic tension, and desperate survival, this terrifying thriller will keep readers on edge until the very last page.

Killer synths and a murderous AI. Yes!

First, let me say that ordinarily the AI narrated voice throws me off a bit, but it works so well with this book. The whole concept of a emotionless AI directing a crew of maintenance synths to kill the human crew being read by and AI. perfect. The book is written incredibly well. Each character is unique and has their own fleshed put personalities and it is tense as s#!t. The action is dope, it's gory, but not over the top and the entire scenario is immersive and believable. love it. already ordered a hard copy for the collection. Read it now!
