About this listen

On September 27th, 2032, the world will change forever…

Lucas Sinclair, a washed-up hacker, finds an encrypted channel, buried in routine network traffic, that is transferring enormous volumes of data to seemingly random locations. In his enclave, surrounded by aging clusters of tech, Lucas uses a suite of bespoke tools to trace down the origin.

He discovers that the source of the signal is near the headquarters of Ainimus, Inc., a small tech company helmed by the reclusive genius Dr. Peter Newsome.

The same Newsome who recently claimed to have built the world’s first true Artificial General Intelligence—Orchestrator.

Lucas warns Ainimus, only to be confronted with skepticism and conceit. But when Lucas ties the signals to an outbreak of malfunctioning tech across Silicon Valley, he realizes his worst fears have come true, and it is up to him to stop the most advanced persistent threat humanity has ever seen.

Alone against an alien, incomprehensible intelligence, Lucas races the clock to stop a force that has become truly Unconstrained.

if you are a fan of Andy Wier's books you'll probably like this... the author (and reader) make unintelligible tech interesting... fast paced, well structured story with plenty of humour (and a couple of genuinely laugh out loud moments) but still a frightening scenario... really enjoyed it 👍

enjoyable Sci fi

Loved it!!

The behaviour of the computer I thought was terrifyingly plausible, but the humans were unrealistically sensible and proactive. Can't say more without introducing spoilers.

Credible and entertaining AI crisis thriller

Kept me engaged with just the right balance of tech/story, worryingly and entirely plausible plot with interesting characters. The author knew when to over explain some of the network jargon. All in all, very enjoyable.

Very entertaining.

The story has clichéd but believable characters, and the plot is a rehashing of the "AI gains sentience" variety, but with clear evidence that the author is very knowledgeable about cyber security. I enjoyed the way that technical knowledge was communicated and how it drove the plot. The repeated use of clichés, common and easily identifiable tropes and dialogue that sounds like they at from a children's TV show or B movie was disappointing and generally detracted from the enjoyment of the book. I would like to see what this author writes next.

Good pacing of the plot, but desperately needed an editor.
