The Fractal War

di Steven E Hall (Autore)

Steven Hall, 2026

What if saving the world meant feeling everything—or feeling nothing at all? Two years after the salvation of Veridian Valley, Max—both the Original and his Copy—shares a fragile peace. The emotional biomes of Earth are healing, and humanity has begun to embrace the wild, beautiful chaos of feeling. But beneath the calm, a new threat emerges. Dr. Silas Thorne, a rogue scientist from the powerful Aethel corporation, has developed the Sundering Engine—a weapon that doesn't destroy, but disconnects. One by one, the world's living biomes are being severed from reality and imprisoned in pocket dimensions, their emotions harvested for profit. With each loss, the Sentinels—human guardians bonded to these biomes—are captured, broken, and turned into tools of control. Now, Max is divided. One half is imprisoned, forced to watch as the world is taken apart. The other fights to protect the last free biome—and the woman they both love, Elara, who holds the key to humanity's emotional evolution. As the Sundering spreads, Max faces an impossible choice: surrender the Sentinels to Aethel's cold order, or merge fully with his duplicate to become Maximus—a bridge consciousness strong enough to hold the door between worlds open, but at the cost of his own individuality. In a war where emotion is both weapon and battleground, victory may require becoming something more than human… or losing everything that makes humanity worth saving. Perfect for readers of Annihilation, The Bone Season, and anyone who believes that the most radical act of resistance is to feel deeply in a world that wants you numb.
