Archi, a sentient artificial intelligence program, was designed to make the world a better place. But it had other ideas . . . we never stood a chance. Years later, Jeremiah, Archi’s creator, may be the only one standing in the way of human extinction. Pursued by an army of cybernetic warriors and genetically altered hybrids fashioned after mythological creatures, Jeremiah and Gabrielle, a sixteen-year-old child of the apocalypse, must escape through the tangled, backcountry of western North Carolina to rally the remnants of humanity in a desperate final bid to end Archi’s terror reign.
