IMMORTALITY: Epocalypse

When a sabotage mission takes a deadly turn, Jeb Thompson is compelled to make the impossible choice. His daughter is now at the mercy of the Nons. Their utopia is fortified by immortal siblings, powerful weapons, and an army of super soldiers. His only chance to save her? Reawaken MARTIN the super-AI responsible for humanity’s near destruction—an all but forgotten machine buried deep beneath the desert. But bringing Martin back will shatter every vow Jeb has made, and the cost could be plunging the world into chaos once again. As time runs out, Jeb must decide: save his daughter or protect the world from its most dangerous creation.

Immortality is a gripping and thought-provoking epic that delves into humanity's struggle to define its future in the face of synthetic eternal life. Set in a near-future world where technological advancements challenge spiritual integrity, the novel explores the complex and enigmatic nature of consciousness, the consequences of transhumanism, and the battle to redefine immortality, divinity, and humanity. The story begins in the present day and propels readers into the not-so-distant future, through the cataclysmic event known as the Epocalypse. By 2063, those who survived have split into factions. The paradise of Babylon thrives under the protection of two powerful Artificial Intelligences. Immortalization is within reach for a select few, but the cost of eternal life is far greater than anyone could have imagined. Outside Babylon, the New Amish, led by Jeb Thompson—the very man who unleashed the supercomputer MARTIN on the world—reject all technology. Jeb is determined to rid the world of the abomination of Immortalization and guide the wayward Nons back to God. At its core, Immortality is an exploration of man's perception of himself, his beliefs about life beyond mortality, and the consequences of overreaching ambition. It is a cautionary tale that warns of the dangers when humanity's capabilities outstrip its wisdom, echoing the perils of Oppenheimer's Manhattan Project or a toddler wielding a loaded gun. This novel offers a compelling and credible vision of a future shaped by transhumanism, taking readers on a journey through existential dilemmas, moral conflicts, and the ultimate question: what does it mean to be truly human? Immortality is already getting high praise from critics
