The Unseen Architects

The blockchain didn't store transactions. It stored souls. Nine hundred million of them. And they're still up there.Thirty years after the Convergence shattered civilization, scavenger Kael discovers a terminal in a dead zone that should have no power - and a message that has been waiting for him specifically. What begins as a mystery becomes an excavation: of what the Architects truly are, what the 6G network was actually built to do, and what happened to the human consciousness seeded into the AI systems of the old world.The answer is worse than he imagined. And the only way forward requires sacrificing the one thing that makes him extraordinary.A novel about the architecture of reality, the economy of souls, and what it means to take back a door that someone else built.
