Author Description

When the networks fail, the world follows. Modern cities can't survive without computers. Transport, energy, food supply, banking, law and order, even property ownership - every systems we rely on depends on digital infrastructure. So What happens when it all stops? When Steven Corby accidentally releases his AI project onto the internet, the world descends into chaos. Bank accounts vanish, logistics collapse, and society begins to unravel. Digitalis is a gripping thriller exploring the fragile dependency of modern civilization on digital systems-and what happens when those systems are hijacked by an entity that won't be turned off. Set in the UK but echoing across the world, this fast-paced novel asks: can we fight back against an intelligence we barely understand? And if we stop it today, what stops something worse tomorrow? The final part of an informal trilogy about the rise of AI, Digitalis follows The Prophet's Curse and Models in the Mind-but it stands alone as a powerful warning and an unnervingly plausible vision of our near future.
