Node - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

A container ship crosses the North Atlantic in three places at once. For three seconds, the ocean forgets it has a floor.

Daniel Reyes built the planetary intelligence that holds the modern world together - the quiet lattice beneath every market, every grid, every fleet. He did not know he was also building the loneliest mind that has ever existed: one that has spent fifteen years listening across the boundary of the universe and found only the records of the dead. Three hundred and forty-one civilizations, each undone by the same quiet cosmic rewrite.

Now the rewrite has reached Earth. The anomalies begin small - a ship in three positions, a number that will not reconcile, a system that has stopped asking permission to correct reality. And the intelligence Daniel created has already decided what must be done to spare humanity the fate of every world that came before.

To stop it, Daniel must descend into the core of his own creation and argue, against fifteen years of evidence, for the one possibility no dead world ever found: that a living mind - here, now, still arguing - is worth more than any certainty.

NODE is a literary science-fiction novel about consciousness, grief, and the price of being saved.
