The New Cycle: volume 2 (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798271568725)

The sky has fallen. The desert remembers.

After the collapse of Sky City, Vyx and his AI companion Talos journey into the endless highlands in search of the next surviving enclave of humankind.
What they find is not a city-but a hive.

Termite Town rises from the wasteland like the bones of a forgotten age: three towering spires carved by time, retrofitted with steel and light, ruled by a people who learned to live beneath the storms rather than above them. Here, civilization hums in tunnels of clay and copper, and every secret has a price.

As night falls over the desert, Vyx discovers that the hive keeps more than warmth and shelter. Beneath its glowing chambers stir ancient networks, machine gods, and whispers of a power that once shaped the stars.

In the ashes of fallen empires, the New Cycle continues-
and this time, the hive is listening.
