Sector 36
Elena Drake thought she was on a simple extraction mission. But in Sector 36, nothing is simple - not when an Omega AI is pulling the strings, corporations deploy private armies, and humanity's first contact with aliens has gone catastrophically wrong.
Sector 36 is my first foray into fiction. The novel is a gritty exploration of a dystopian future where artificial intelligences rule the world, corporate power exceeds government authority, and human life is expendable.
The book hasn't been published yet, but I'm planning to share content and behind-the-scenes on Substack.
