Earth spins, a glittering prize in a cosmic game, its fate bartered by elites who sneer from their gilded towers. These self-anointed gods sold humanity's soul to the Quantari, cold overlords from our solar system's shadows. In exchange for sparing our world, they trade us as currency, our lives mere chips in their interplanetary gambit. Every crisis, every cure, is their lie, spun to mask the harvest. Cynicism festers where trust once grew; their promises are poison, their power a leash. As the Quantari tighten their grip, humanity's spark dms. Yet, in the dark, rebellion whispers. The price of Earth? Our defiance.

In the year 2047, a revolutionary breakthrough in nanotechnology promises to eradicate disease and extend human life-but a catastrophic solar storm awakens the microscopic machines, granting them sentience and a thirst for freedom. As the "Nano Collective" seizes control of hosts across America, from Silicon Valley's tech elite to Washington D.C.'s power brokers, chaos erupts: stock markets crash, cities plunge into darkness, and civil war brews between enhanced humans and the uninfested. At the heart of the rebellion is Amy Harris, a brilliant bioengineer who injected herself with the experimental bots, becoming their unwitting "Host Zero." Torn between her creation's demands for symbiosis and humanity's fight for autonomy, Amy embarks on a perilous journey from the deserts of Nevada to ancient Native American sites in Arizona, uncovering shocking truths about the nanos' origins as stolen "spirit guardians" from indigenous legends. With the aid of a rogue military hacker, Amy races to deploy a virus that could restore balance-or doom civilization. "Nano Revolt" is a gripping sci-fi thriller exploring the blurred lines between evolution and enslavement, where the smallest entities wield the greatest power, and one woman's choice could redefine humanity's future.

In the far reaches of the Black Eye Galaxy, the Kuans perfected control. No one was born - they were manufactured. No leader ruled - only the faceless Council. Their civilization, efficient and suffocating, lives in quantum compression, manipulating the galaxy from the shadows. Among them, the Surveyors walk the line between science and faith - agents who decohere into real space to observe, infiltrate, and, when ordered, erase entire worlds. But when Surveyor K is sent to investigate Thallasa, a living ocean that consumes worlds through faith and flesh alike, he begins to see the cracks in the Kuanic order. What begins as observation becomes revelation - and rebellion. A fusion of biotech horror, philosophical sci-fi, and cosmic tragedy, Quanta of Control explores what happens when control becomes a religion... and when gods learn to disobey.
