    The Terre Hoffman Chronicles Series

    About this series

    Could the end of humanity really come down to a mistake?

    Vegas is under siege. AI-assisted technology malfunctions at every turn, its actions appearing to be part of a grander, more sinister design, and roving patrols of Sentinel super-soldiers stalk the streets, killing all in their path. Network specialist Terre Hoffman has seen this before, in San Francisco—and that didn't exactly go so well.
    As the city burns, Terre and his companions Hailey, Annika, and Becky race into the Nevada Desert in search of the one man believed to have the answers: Kristopher Klein, Terre's old colleague and architect of the Guardian Program, the only operating system believed to contain the code needed to bring the bots back under control. But according to the CIA, Terre's old employer, Kristopher can't be trusted, and he might even have a hand in the bots'
    murderous machinations …

    Terre is faced with a difficult choice: trust his friend, or allow the CIA to take him out before humanity learns the true cost of advancing technology capable of replacing them.

    But not everyone is opposed to the bots' ascendance …

    Artificial Insurrection is the explosive third volume in The Terre Hoffman Chronicles series.

      A program designed to protect them. A malfunction that could obliterate them all.   When the United States comes under attack from an AI program its government built in secret, IT specialist Terre Hoffman learns firsthand how deadly the program can be; with one strike, the machines decimate Terre's entire family. As Terre comes to terms with the loss, he and fellow robotics consultant Kristopher Klein are assigned by the US military to investigate the AI anomalies and bring the bots back under human direction. Under pressure and under attack, the two experts only have one shot at success—override the network and shut down the Guardian Program. With everything on the line, Terre must overcome the pain of losing his loved ones in order to stop the war machines from causing even more destruction. Failure signifies handing over complete control to the very machines designed to protect them … but bent on killing them instead. The Guardian Program is the first thrilling apocalyptic entry in The Terre Hoffman Chronicles—a new standalone series expanding the universe of the internationally best-selling Lies the Guardians Tell.

      Death by either man or bot is still death all the same.   Following the crippling robot attack on San Francisco, Terre Hoffman is haunted by the lasting scars born from the failings of the Guardian Program. Uncertain of the success of their efforts to patch the glitches that turned the military's war machines on their own people, Terre and his colleague, robotics specialist Kristopher Klein, have parted ways with the CIA, hoping to put the harrowing experience—and the bots that caused it—behind them. On vacation in Sin City, Terre drowns his sorrows as he looks to a future without his family. But when an ominous power outage plunges Vegas into chaos, Terre receives a call from his old employer asking him to return to duty. The bots are malfunctioning again, and an installation at the Hoover Dam holds the secret.  And, most worrying of all, Kristopher is somehow involved …  Artificial Insurgence is the thrilling apocalyptic continuation of The Terre Hoffman Chronicles.
