This is a series of short stories that sets up the setting of the Langenium game world. I recommend reading them in order, however, they are told as standalone short stories that can be read on their own.
In the near future, human civilisation is in decline.
Following decades of conflict between nations, technology companies no longer produce the components needed to power the age of computing. The creation of an AI that can help humanity seems all but out of reach.
Deep in the frozen tundra of Canada there is hope. His name is Geoffrey Weyun. Geoffrey believes he and his online friends can build a new AI that will help rebuild what’s been lost.
He has no idea what he’s about to set in motion.
In New York City, Kate O’Connor is addressing the UN about a new medical breakthrough. FBI Agent Tim Goth is investigating an international crime ring conducting experiments that may hold the secret to immortality. And Robert Francisco, one of the world’s most famous actors, finds himself in a relationship unlike any he has known before.
