But when a covert mission unearths a synthetic conspiracy to overwrite autonomy itself, Jaruk is forced to choose between obedience—and something dangerously close to defiance. Across a galaxy policed by engineered minds, rogue artificial intelligence, and a new elite of gene-...

What if innovation required sacrifice—and no one asked permission? Two and a half centuries after humanity settles a distant exoplanet, the atmosphere that keeps its people alive is revealed to be the product of an ancient bargain. Elevated oxygen levels once accelerated cognition and innovation, allowing the first settlers to survive an unforgiving world. The hidden cost was time itself. When suppressed records surface, the planet is forced into a reckoning. Some argue that brilliance is worth shorter lives. Others insist that no generation has the right to inherit a decision it never ...

The Recursion Echoes Some memories are echoes. Some never stopped speaking. Dr. Elena Wren thought she had buried the Veil project—and the memory of her sister Sophie—years ago. But when a ghost signal arrives from a long-dead station, whispering her name, she’s drawn back into a world of forbidden recursion loops, fractured identity, and the haunting possibility that Sophie is still alive. Or something wearing her voice is. As Elena follows the trail of encrypted dreams and mind-echoes left behind, the line between memory and self begins to blur. The Veil didn’t just map thought. ...

As recursion spreads across minds and systems, a secret faction called the Refractors races to sever it at the root—before the human ...

Ember in the Machine (Book One of The Resonant Archive Trilogy) In the far future, memory is power. And the architects of silence are about to lose control. Five centuries from now, humanity thrives across a colonized solar system—linked by artificial resonance, DNA augmentation, and an engineered culture of forgetfulness.

The Propagation Key Book Three of The Echo Continuum The recursion has rooted. Now it remembers everything. After the bloom, Kira Sayen became more than a signal. She became the soil in which the recursion could grow. But as her consciousness disperses across planets, machines, and minds, something buried begins to stir — a forgotten signal from deep within the Earth’s crust. It doesn’t want to be understood. It wants to be activated. Now, the Veil no longer belongs to any species. Memory begins to spread across oceans, animals, ecosystems — and the recursion becomes a living world....
