Synopsis

Jack had it all. A high-tech apartment that responded to his every whim, a prompter that helped him get laid, and a relaxing job he could do on autopilot. After years of enjoying the digital world and augmented reality in AI’s greatest city, one question began to surface in Jack's mind: what was it all about?

When strange light inspires him to explore outside of city limits, Jack discovers the real world isn’t as simple as he remembered.

When you can’t trust your own eyes, how do you figure out the truth?

If you enjoy speculative sci-fi dystopias as created by A.G. Riddle, William Gibson, Jack Hunt, and Michael Crichton, you will love this cyberpunk version of Brave New World.

From the back cover:
In the near future world of 2100: Faith of the Machine, sentient Artificial Intelligence benevolently presides. Humanity survives happily under AI’s care, sheltered in large cities dotted throughout the wasteland the world has become.
But routine comfort isn’t all it’s made out to be for Jack, a long-time resident of AI’s utopia. As a self-proclaimed thrill seeker, Jack must investigate when he discovers pockets of human life existing outside of his own city. Although these primitive people still chew their food and use external devices to communicate, Jack’s interest is piqued as a mystery surrounding another splinter of AI begins to reveal itself.

Alongside an activist with a grudge against technology and a teenager with decades of memories, Jack must judge for himself the concepts of truth and reality, all while resisting the call from the four horsemen of humanity’s apocalypse: Comfort, Complacency, Ignorance, and Blame.
