"In the not-so-distant future, where the boundaries between the real world and the virtual one blur into obscurity, a group of audacious teenagers dares to defy the status quo. Welcome to a world where pixels are the new reality, and the metaverse is king. Meet Alex, a tech-savvy misfit with a rebellious spirit, who stumbles upon a hidden secret that could shatter the digital illusion. It all starts innocently enough with a glitch in the code, a whisper of something amiss in the flawless façade of their virtual existence. But as the anomaly beckons, curiosity turns to obsession, and Alex can't resist the urge to unravel the truth. Joined by a diverse crew of fellow hackers, gamers, and digital outlaws, they embark on an electrifying quest to pierce the veil of the virtual world. Along the way, they'll encounter enigmatic AIs, navigate treacherous dungeons, and unearth cryptic messages left by a shadowy figure known only as "The Architect." As the lines between their augmented reality and the tangible one blur, they must confront a stark reality: some secrets are better left buried in the code. The future of humanity hangs in the balance, and the clock is ticking. But in a world where the digital and physical collide, where virtual friends become real allies, Alex and their companions are about to discover that their rebellion against the virtual regime has far-reaching consequences they could never have imagined. Will they unveil the ultimate truth, or will the digital realm consume them before they can break free? One thing's for sure: The revolution begins here."

❖ Interstellar pilot and ex-adventurer Alex Gallegos must keep their team safe on an icy moon as sentient storms threaten to repeat the tragedy that ended their last career. ❖ Everyone in the United Inhabited Solar Systems (for some reason, UIS for short) knows to stay away from Mahaha. The icy moon is notorious for failed probe landings and research missions that end in tragedy: the only people to ever venture to its surface needed rescuing after just two weeks. When a prestigious research group decides they want a turn, they ask Alex Gallegos to lead the team. Perfectly qualified and haunted by their past, Alex accepts, hoping to make up for old mistakes and get just a little further from the earth they've left behind. Two months into the seven-month mission, the team is struggling with discontent, damaged equipment, and blizzards acting less and less like normal weather. As Mahaha moves out of range of help and the storms take on a more malicious character, Alex must face the one foe they could never have prepared for. Mahaha may or may not be alive. ❖❖❖ Complete.
