Book excerpt: This techno-thriller has it all; A.I. gods, mad scientists, horror, destructive armies, cyberpunk and nanopunk environment, dystopian social structure and aggressive conscious robots. The story is interlaced with dark humor and social satire. Mogador is stuffed below its crust with opulent items stolen from a thousand outer-rim museums. In vast underground store-rooms are armies of killer robots, assassin androids, battle-droids, unreplaceable treasures and wondrous gadgetry. They are in storage waiting for the chosen people to use. This artificial world has access to billions of multidimensional sensors to harvest news about the quadrant of space surrounding its location. It has been set up as flypaper to attract inquisitive entities. These adventurers obsessed with greed believe they can steal the antiquities. Upon arrival, they are inspected by the planet's controlling Artilect. If they are not members of the chosen people, their minds are wiped clean during this process. A few are permitted to escape with fragmented memories and some loot to continue the myth of a lost treasure planet to entice similar soldiers of fortune. Tesla surface waves pump energy continuously into the artificial planet's atmosphere as a keep-alive voltage to maintain an environment impregnated with nanites that fill land, sea, and air. This digital substance can assemble and dissemble upon receiving psionic orders issued by enhanced individuals with unique DNA. For a million years, Mogador lacked a population of thinking flesh and blood beings. Today things are different. Topside live backward decedents of humans kidnapped from the Earth by an indifferent robot. They were measured, categorized, and deposited in a protected zone along with a menagerie of Earth animals and assorted plant life. When a global catastrophe destroyed the planet's core computer, they were left to fend for themselves. Since then, humans have eked out a subsistence existence for over twenty centuries, unaware of hidden entrances leading to a wonderland beneath their feet. Things changed recently when a young woman known as Adora, not yet 20 years of age, encountered the ghost of the cyber-guardian of the planet. Lacking physical form, the spirit requires assistance from those living in the real world. That entity and her race are imprisoned within the mainframe of a Matriashka Brain and prevented by that A.I. from returning to their bodies waiting in cold storage. By the induction of dream sequences and visions, Adora is tasked with helping the spirit escape. Additionally, she needs to eliminate a bio-techno-parasite that recently arrived upon Mogador. It can reformat informational energy and has already begun eating away at recorded existence with a ravenous appetite. It is replacing reality with an upside-down universe of horror. A gang of vicious mountain tribesmen kidnaped the maiden. Breaking free from captivity, she accidentally discovered a route leading to the underground cities and stumbled upon amazing machines and high-tech weapons. During her journey, she becomes an enhanced human. Adora must depend upon her wits to eradicate the reality rearranging psychic parasite before she is murdered by the attacking star-race that unleashed this demonic virus or made a mindless sex-toy by the human leader of the Servo-men. Adora is helped by three obsolete and malfunctioning robots of questionable skill. General Balak is a quixotic military guardian who cannot lead. Namtar is a feckless philosopher who believes in nothing, and ZaDa is a bumbling empathy robot afraid of everything. Spying on all is the living Spectral Tapestry that reports to a cosmic entity with God-like abilities. It is forever growing as it expands throughout the universe, attempting to connect every part of existence to all others.
