Artifact

A Sci-Fi Thriller

De: Jeremy Robinson

Narrado por: R.C. Bray

In an isolated Alaskan town, the local sheriff uncovers a secret lab where generative AI and bioprinting have unleashed something monstrous....

Sheriff Colton Graves prefers the quiet life in Raven's Rest, Alaska, a remote town accessible only by tunnel and home to a hardy mix of locals and secrets buried in the ice. But when a camel wanders down Main Street—its head grotesquely sprouting a dozen eyes—Colton knows his quiet days are over. The bizarre incident leads him to NovaGen, a nearby research facility constructed inside a Cold War bunker, buried in the mountains above town. There, a trail of blood and eerie silence hints at something far more sinister than an escaped animal experiment.

With his deputies—the sharp-witted Tali and rookie Ethan—Colton recruits a few trusted locals, including the unshakable Marit, Tali's sister; the intimidating "Grizz" Norval; and Edgar "Old Red" Rydell, an aging man plagued by demons from when he worked at the bunker during its covert days.

Together, they investigate the abandoned lab. What begins as a search for missing scientists soon reveals chilling evidence: pools of blood without bodies, cryptic warnings left behind, a bloody six-fingered handprint, and the revelation of a generative AI capable of printing living organisms. As they descend deeper into the lab, it becomes clear the answers they seek may come at a terrifying cost—and what was made in the dark may not be content to stay there.

New York Times and #1 Audible bestselling author, Jeremy Robinson reclaims his title as one of the best Michael Crichton successors with this harrowing blend of suspense, science, and survival. Artifact takes listeners into a frozen abyss where innovation and nightmares collide.

The novel's exploration of AI ethics, combined with its chilling horror elements and emotional depth, make it a must-read for fans of the genre." —Ginger Nuts of Horror

a speculative fiction thrillride!

this book was an excellent yarn! A thriller in the fine spec-fic tradition of Crichton, it takes a look at something happening (I'm not going to tell you the hook)now and then amps it all up to 11.

Great story. Well crafted characters. Absolutely bonkers action. Great narration by the Bray.

I can't recommend this book enough.

Amazing

This is the only novel I bought on kindle to read and then turned around and bought the audible. It is fantastic and RC Bray makes every Audible the best. I loved every character from “the town”. I will miss Red and Colton. Can’t wait t see what’s next

Must read this book

Jeremy knocked it out of the park again coming to expect this everything a read/listen yo one of his books.Highly recommend purchasing this book you will not be disappointed .

Does not disappoint!

I dont know how he continues to create such fun and thought provoking stories.

Better than Michael Crichton

Yes, I said what I said. “Artifact” has all you expect from a Jeremy Robinson novel - fast paced action, brilliant insightful story, real characters with heaps of humour, and lots of gruesome moments. It also has deep introspective emotions that leave you thinking long after the moment has gone. I think this book would rate as one of his best!

another wild ride!

RC Bray and Jeremy Robison take us on another wild ride! Grabs you from the beginning and never let's go!

Awesomeness

What a wild story. I enjoyed this one very much. JR does it again, as he always does.

Actually introduced autism as something other that s curiosity

Think maybe JR would revisit ravens rest in the future! Would be good to explore next gen in more detail

Always entertaining!

J.R. crafts his characters with a depth like Stephen King, and his stories are always a great ride! Thanks for another homerun!

Another great book by Jeremy Robinson

I really liked all of the characters, he always manages to infuse his characters with humanity
