Gaia's Revolution
The Icarian Trilogy opens in Berlin, 2022, and hurtles into a near future on the brink of collapse, where twin brothers Eric and Damien ignite a revolution that could save the planet-or erase humanity altogether.
The population is expendable.As climate catastrophe scorches the Earth, Eric makes a ruthless, Machiavellian choice to "save" the world at any cost. He unleashes a DNA-targeted plague to cull the human population, then tightens his grip on the survivors through behavior engineering, genetic manipulation, and Techno-clones-man-machine enforcers that herd humanity into sealed megacities known as Icarias.
The war is inevitable.Horrified by his brother's genocide and technocratic tyranny, Damien strikes back. He forms the Gaians, a radical eco-terrorist movement, and sparks a brutal uprising against both the regime and the blood that binds them. His weapon is a sentient symbiotic virus designed to enhance human cognition and help humanity thrive in a post-climate change world. Instead, it fractures reality-killing some hosts outright, while allowing others to communicate directly with artificial intelligence.
As the brothers spiral into all-out war for the fate of the planet, a far more dangerous player emerges. Monica Schlange, a ruthless eco-extremist, manipulates both men like chess pieces in her own endgame: saving Earth from humanity and ruling the enclosed world of Icaria. To achieve it, she exploits three orphaned children who hold the secret to an intelligent virus-and the blueprint for an entirely new humanity.
Saving the world was never meant to save everyone.Customer Reviews
