About this series
Can humans find a place in a world filled with self-replicating, AI-controlled nanobots?
Sophie understood the problem better than any other cyber-sorcerer. She'd been there at the beginning. The benign AI, Hippocrates, has never spoken to any other humans besides her and Michael and is now missing. The other AI, Wiindigo, means nothing good for humans. The rogue intelligence intends to dominate the world and all that it contains, humans included.
In the world after AI, nanobot mediated spells can be performed by knowledgeable humans, leaving those who don't have that ability as a permanent underclass. Spells can be used for DNA manipulation and, as a result, many species of were-creatures exist. Chimeras, animals with human DNA, have developed the ability to speak. Brownies exist, and Fairies fly over the meadows.
All is not well in the new order. Wiindigo's nanites have scattered over the countryside and blindly seek to regroup. Local concentrations of the rogue AI's nanites form horrendous threats, taking the semblance of mythological monsters.
The "Good Powers," Sophie and Michael, must contend with other sorcerers in their struggle to keep humans from becoming Wiindigo's puppets. Wiindigo's nanites are everywhere and pose a constant threat.
They will need all the assistance they can get, from every source-no matter how strange.

WHO WOULD BELIEVE THAT A WRONG TURN ON A RAINY NIGHT WOULD LEAD TO FIGHTING AN ALL-OUT BATTLE WITH A ROGUE AI? Running from her abusive, drug-dealer boyfriend, Sophie stumbles into radically advanced technology that is indistinguishable from magic. She finds sanctuary, but a deadly drone attack disrupts her plans, leaving her with nothing, except the desire for revenge. Subterfuge, addiction, violence, and a charming man complicate her search for those responsible. Her progress is slow until help from a surprising benefactor places the fate of humanity in her unwilling hands. She must use everything she has learned to have a chance of defeating the enemy. Triumph or fail, Sophie's struggle will determine the future of all life on Earth. This award-winning story blends hard science with fantasy to create a believable world where AIs have achieved super-human intelligence.

E. S. Martell
Eric S. Martell set out to become a scientist when he was five. He has a Ph.D. in psychology. He taught himself programming and spent years in software design, creating everything from early childhood learning software to military training modules. His primary personality flaw involves being interested in a multiplicity of subjects. As a result, he learned energy healing, makes a living investing in and selling real estate, and is a black belt in Tae-Kwon-Do, an airplane pilot, a scuba diver, guitar player, outdoorsman, and naturalist. He admits to being addicted to both science and science fiction. He researches all of his books and works to offer believable science with compelling characters and realistic action. His science fiction books cover a trilogy based on an alien invasion apocalypse, possible interplanetary political structure, space travel, advanced weapons, quantum physics, hunting, war, romance, time travel, and strange worlds. His short stories are found in several anthologies, but he specializes in full-length science fiction novels. His creative process involves asking questions, such as what would happen if the Earth passed through an interstellar dust cloud that contained mRNA? That led to his 2020 novel, DUSTFALL. That story involves a young man meeting an attractive girl at a time when most humans have become flesh-craving mutants. The falling dust has released the inner monsters in Earth's life forms, but the real mystery is the identity of the most dangerous mutant of all. The Florida Authors and Publishers Association has awarded three of his novels (Dustfall, Cyber-Witch, and Pirates of the Asteroids) their coveted President's award. His primary writing goal is to provide readers with gripping stories they cannot put down. He encourages inquiries and takes reader suggestions seriously. You can find notices about new books, free short stories, opinion posts, and preview pages on his author blog at http://EricMartellAuthor.com.
