The world as we know it is about to end.

Hoodwink Cooper has been sentenced to death. His crime? Attempting to blast a hole in the Forever Gate, the colossal wall that surrounds the city and protects the denizens from the uninhabitable Outside. There's only one problem - he isn't the one who planted the bomb.

His daughter did, at the behest of a secretive...

The Legend Continues...

Prematurely aged by the use of a power known as vitra, Ari now heads the Users, the secretive cabal that strives to protect humanity from those who would enslave them - the gols.

The User ranks were decimated shortly after Hoodwink vanished ten years ago, and she rebuilt the group from the ground up. In that time, she'd given everything she had to the Users, and human society in general. Body. Mind. Soul. For what?

It hadn't mattered. She hadn't changed a thing. The world still died a little every day. The...

Target: Al Sifr.
Profile: Terrorist mastermind.
Mission Objective: Terminate with extreme prejudice.

Ethan is paired with the beautiful yet troubled Bretta Storm in his latest operation--the pursuit of the elusive terrorist financier and mastermind, Al Sifr. The target baits them into a deadly game of cat and mouse that leads the duo through the slums of Romania, the vineyards of France, and the nightclubs of Hong Kong. But the deceptive Al Sifr always proves one step ahead, his trail mired in booby traps and red herrings.

At the end of Book 4, Hoodwink returned to the Outside and departed in a small vessel, apparently abandoning Tanner and the rest of humanity to their fate.

Now Tanner must fight alone against the threat raged by One, the rampant, seemingly invincible AI.

Will Tanner find a way to defeat the AI before the world of the Inside is completely destroyed?

Meanwhile, will Hoodwink save the daughter he gave up everything for and, more importantly, will he betray humanity to do it?

With air quickly running out on the Outside, Ari and taner struggle to complete the mission for the Control Room before it is too late.

Unbeknownst to them, Jeremy has dispatched a four-armed assassin, Brute, to hunt them down.

Will they find the box in time, or will brute dismember them piece by piece as their bodies die of hypoxia in the real world?

Ari and Tanner investigate a series of peculiar occurrences in the virtual world of the Inside that point to the rebirth of One, the rogue AI that nearly destroyed them all in the last adventure.

Soon Ari and Tanner find themselves embroiled in a plot that could lead to all out war on the Inside. Hibernating colonists begin to awaken en masse from the digital world, straining the already meager resources of the generation ship that houses them.

If Ari and Tanner do not prevail, the last vestiges of humankind could be wiped from the galaxy, their sole legacy: a...

The mission to retrieve the Control Room resulted in failure. Tanner awoke on the Outside, with Ari apparently dead and three lethal machines closing in on his position.

Even if he escapes the machines he only has five minutes of oxygen left. And Ari is gone, so none of it matters anyway.

Yet Tanner refuses to give up. He's not going to let the story end like this.

Not if he can help it.
