The Needle and the Song

By Jayce Marin

Logan was built to obey.

Deep beneath a rusted city, he is the Consortium's perfect instrument: precise, relentless, and kept stable by a memory of a sunlit farm he has never seen. But when the planet begins speaking through the Aether that powers the city, the false peace inside his mind starts to fracture.

The message leads Logan into the Underworks, where machinery feeds on something alive beneath the surface, and every answer points to a buried design older than the Consortium itself. With Kelvin, Lyra, and Boris beside him, Logan must face the truth about the life he was given, the weapon he was made to be, and the world that has been kept asleep.

As the city tightens its grip and the planet's scream grows louder, Logan has one choice: remain a tool of the system-or become the voice that wakes it.

A dark, cinematic science-fiction adventure of memory, rebellion, found family, and a living world on the edge of awakening.
