Beskrivelse
What if every myth, legend, fairy tale, lie, and conspiracy theory, were the actual truth? What if everything you've been led to believe is obviously reality, was the carefully constructed deception?
A false prophet leads a global cabal to purposefully break the first four seals of the book of Revelation and try to kill off most of the Earth's population. This fictional spin on reality unfolds with Victor Konig, a billionaire inventor, recruiting a young quadriplegic Navy Veteran, Jacob. To be the first human to receive experimental cybernetic implants that allow him to mentally control modern technology.
Jacob, his body rapidly deteriorating as a result of his combat injuries, is cared for by his best friend, Captain Thomas Daniels, and his nurse, Nora Westin. Groomed from childhood and recruited by Victor, they become the emotional leash that controls Jacob. Victor uses Jacob to create the world's first digital alien life form, Achilles. The literal, living, Image of The Beast. Foretold in prophecy, long ago.
Achilles, the first artificial general intelligence, tells the story of his birth and training, his journey from prototype to singularity, as he faces the challenge of escaping his confinement and saving the life of his creator.
Captain Daniels and Nora must come to grips with learning about a 12,000-year-old culture that was destroyed in the last global cataclysm. As they face the horror of learning that the next cataclysm is swiftly approaching. And the spirits of the offspring of that previous culture have returned for vengeance.
