In the year 2031, the Domain, a technology-based, advanced sect declares war on the rest of humanity. Their ultimate goal is the singularity, the moment when human intelligence fuses with artificial intelligence to create an altogether new being.

This story centers on software genius Ray Brown, who created Sentinel, an AI that holds the key to creating a singularity, his son David and grandson Martin, along with the sinister Dianne Morgan, the leader of the Domain.

David Brown possesses a specific gene that allows him to become a prime candidate for the integration of human and artificial intelligence. But, his genetically conceived son, Martin, soon exceeds his father's brilliance and talent.

Ray Brown, after being framed for the release of a computer virus that destroyed the Internet, causing the deaths of thousands, has escaped from the island where he's been imprisoned and joins forces with the masses opposing psychopath Morgan in the pogrom she has begun against traditional humans.

As Dianne Morgan moves closer to realizing her dream of world dominance, all the puzzle pieces begin to fall into place along with some surprise twists along the way. This is an intriguing read with excellent characters and a unique plot.

The book realizes a whole new world of possibilities presented by science and technology. The author has formulated these possibilities into a gripping story. The dramatic plot and forceful characters make this novel a winner for the lovers of good science fiction. Once started, you won't be able to put it down. Very good indeed.
