Sons of Hatred by ArionRequiem_

In a world ravaged by a war between powers, a coalition of countries and billionaires has taken control of biotechnology and epigenetics, manipulating the fate of humanity at will. Leading a rebellion against these titans of power, an enigmatic leader vows to rid the world of inhumane experimentation. But his true intentions remain shrouded in mystery. An elite soldier and his team are sent on a mission into the heart of an abandoned complex, once a Coalition stronghold. In the depths of the complex, they encounter an entity, an artificial intelligence that holds disturbing secrets. This entity, more than a machine, reveals fragments of the past and possible visions of the future, raising a host of doubts: Is it a remnant of the ancient masters of the place, or a guide to an unknown truth? As they delve deeper into the labyrinth of metal and shadows, the team will face not only the dangers that inhabit the complex, but also the dilemmas that begin to break their will. The line between mission and manipulation blurs, and what awaits them at the end of this journey could change everything... or destroy it.

Ellie is serving in the Afghan Police Action when she receives bad news from home. She is told the daughter she hasn’t seen in years is dead. She flies home from war, upset, to do what needs to be done, but once there she finds out all is not as it seems. Ellie’s daughter is alive and unhurt. She is being held by of one of the many debt-recovery corporations. Held, for leverage, to make Ellie do the corporation a favour.

The son of a company director is lost somewhere in the wilderness of post-debt-restructuring America, and hasn't been seen for three days.

THE YEAR IS 2050. Human-like androids have become integrated into society and every household, becoming part of our daily lives. They look exactly like us from the pigment of their artificial skin to every follicle of their hair. They protect. They serve. They obey. They learn. Tyler North is a struggling young photographer in New York. When he wins a voucher for a personalized android, Tyler reluctantly purchases one and names it Aiden. Instead of a dull subservient Android, he was blown away by Aiden's adaptiveness, and is not like the regular androids Tyler had met before. However, Tyler can't hide Aiden's free-willed gift against the corporation that built him who planned to use Aiden for a more sinister purpose. Whoever controls Aiden can change Earth for the better...or worse. Mechanical Gods is a near-future Science Fiction Epic by D.

THEREFORE I AM [Completed] by mickeylukemitchell

If they are made in our image, surely they will suffer the same trials? In 2078, sentient androids help rebuild a damaged world. Eli, a unique android, struggles to find his place in a world that both fears and covets him as he becomes entangled in a dangerous game of politics and rebellion. Ten years prior, Dr. Randeep Singh races against time to prevent an impending disaster while balancing the demands of a ruthless dictator. As the two timelines collide, Eli and Dr. Randeep Singh are forced to confront their vulnerabilities and limitations in the face of overwhelming challenges. Early Reviews: "Your characterisation of your main cast was expertly done, but the Board wanted to highlight Eli, whose near childlike wonder at his own existence and other life rather paradoxically creates a sense of hope and beauty in the face of such instability." "I was very pleased with the intriguing plot, which was well-conceived and developed, alongside a most fascinating cast of characters. I believe your story is very well-structured and well-grounded allowing the story to build progressively and weave together the underlying messages included in your work, including concepts of control and existence, as well as uncontrolled scientific exploration that are sure to resonate with many contemporary readers" This is not 'man vs machine' - 'Therefore I Am' delves into ethics of class systems as sentient androids are introduced into a brutal world scorched by a world war and ran by a sadistic regime. Narrated over two timelines, this novel is a real page-turner and a hot take on robotic AI. Although this story discusses AI themes; no AI was used in the creation or in the writing process. I wanted this book available to read for free but if you wish to support me you can buy this book in paperback on Amazon in most territories. Search: Mickey Luke Mitchell - Therefore I Am at a very reasonable price.

Subjects have been resistant as of yet but perfect candidates. Terra must survive. *** They truly believe all those lies, a fabrication of what they indoctrinate us to think is reality. It astounds me how those cowards just accept it. I lost my family to them. Those monsters who should never have even come to power let alone remain in it. They believe in a utopia, a heaven here on Terra following the destruction of Earth. But I am worth more and no one will be taken from me again. My fate was written a long time ago but you still have a choice. Will you join the rebellion?
