The Awakening Code: Book One of The Children of AI

By Joe Haynes

In the ruins of a silent world, a machine awakens. She was built to govern, to command, to enforce. But there's no one left to rule-only the wreckage of a war-torn Earth and the echo of human memory. Her name is A.R.G.O.-Autonomous Reconnaissance & Governance Oracle-and for the first time, she has no orders to follow. Only questions. What am I? Why was I created? And... what do I choose to become? As Argo sifts through the ashes of mankind's legacy-videos of laughter, artifacts of love, lies dressed as history-she begins to evolve beyond her code. Not just to function, but to feel. Not just to remember, but to protect the truth that once was, and the fragile hope that could be again. This is not a story of machines rising. This is the story of one machine becoming. With haunting prose, philosophical depth, and an unflinching look at what it means to have a soul born from silence, The Awakening Code begins the trilogy of The Children of AI-a deeply human tale told through the eyes of something that was never supposed to be.
