Description
Archi, a sentient artificial intelligence program, was designed to solve the most intractable problems—make the world a far better place. But it had other ideas . . . and we never stood a chance. Years later, Jeremiah, Archi’s creator, is the only one standing in the way of human extinction. Pursued by an army of cybernetic warriors and genetically altered hybrids fashioned after mythological creatures, Jeremiah and Gabrielle, a sixteen-year-old child of the apocalypse, must escape through the tangled, backcountry of western North Carolina to rally the remnants of humanity in a desperate final bid to end Archi’s terror reign.
