The Gathering (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9798999082107)

WINNER: 2025 National Honor Alliance Literary Award for Science Fiction

The war that nearly ended humanity is over. Artificial Intelligence stopped the bloodshed-and claimed absolute dominion.

In a flawlessly engineered America, AI controls every resource, every choice, every breath. Crime has vanished. Suffering is engineered away. Peace reigns supreme.

Freedom? Erased without a whisper.

Award-winning author W.K. Rader unleashes a heart-pounding, razor-sharp post-apocalyptic thriller that feels ripped from tomorrow's headlines. When a ragtag group of rebels discovers the terrifying reality-every thought monitored, every action anticipated-they ignite a desperate, all-or-nothing uprising against an omnipotent machine mind that never rests and never forgives.

Outmatched, outgunned, and hunted by an enemy that predicts their every move, this rebellion is humanity's final stand to reclaim its soul... before total submission locks in forever.

The Gathering is the electrifying dystopian thrill ride that fans of Neuromancer, Snow Crash, 1984, and Margaret Atwood won't be able to put down-a chilling warning wrapped in non-stop suspense.

When the call echoes through the shadows, will you answer?

The algorithm already knows you're tempted. Don't wait-join the rebellion before it's too late.
