Opis

Children of A Dark Age The Children Of a Dark Age is a 128,000-word Sci-Fi novel set in a future Island City- State, teetering precariously on the edge oblivion. in a world devastated by the ancient plagues of Man, a wandering probe from a long dead civilization having visited the Earth, now sets to make some changes by means of subtle genetic manipulation. To do this, the probe employs a microscopic sentient life form known as the Architecture molecule. The long dead builders of the probe, betrayed by their own creation seek now only release from its hold. Its plan, to bring about a world of its own creation, to tinker with gears of evolution, to bring forth a suitable symbiotic host. This tinkering beyond its intended purpose has unforeseen consequences not only to biology but to the earthly technology based upon it. These set of circumstances leave the already fragile human population with one last extinction hurdle to pass, domination by an emergent artificial intelligence. It is to these circumstances that the characters must rise up against. Jack Walker, an unwitting product of this tinkering, has somehow changed. He is possessed now by sensitivity to this sentient architecture molecule, which possesses the ability to transfigure matter and bend the form of space and time. Jack is at once its slave and its master. This sweeping epic brings to full circle three story arcs to a final battle and resolution. There can be only one race to inherit the Earth. The family of Man has been its sole master for ten millennia can they hold out for one more day?
