Oracle Engine, The

di Michael Zmuda (Autore)

Independently published, 2026

In a fractured world where magic and technology collide, knights in enchanted steel charge plasma cannons, and towering mechs are felled by ancient spells. Commander William King, a tactical genius from the hyper-logical Directorate of Praxis, is a ghost in their machine, leading a desperate resistance in the primal world of Myrr. Haunted by the woman he lost when reality was torn in two, he wages a war of attrition against his former masters—a war they are statistically certain to lose. But hope glimmers in a forgotten legend: the Axiom Engine, an ancient machine with the power to either heal the fractured worlds or shatter them forever. The key lies with Amelia Davidson, a fierce warrior whose bloodline makes her a living Catalyst, destined to interface with a power that defies all reason. Together, they must embark on an impossible heist into a silent, sentient city that has not known life in a thousand years. Meanwhile, across the dimensional tear in the sterile, logical world of Praxis, the master mage Melanie Davidson languishes in a white-walled prison. Stripped of her power and subjected to endless tests, she becomes an unlikely leader for the “Kindled”—a nascent resistance of outcasts with terrifying, uncontrolled abilities. Her own desperate fight for survival puts her on a collision course with the Directorate’s darkest secret, a secret that shares the same impossible name: Axiom. Yet both sides are blind to the true enemy. A parasitic cosmic horror, an ancient evil known only as the Maw, festers in the wound between worlds. It feeds on the conflict, turning soldier and sorcerer alike into its puppets. Can a haunted commander and a powerless mage, separated by the very reality they are trying to fix, uncover the heart of the lie before their two-front war becomes a feast for a hungry, patient god?
