Nouscraft

Leonard Buford

?
Nous brain implants have replaced smartphones, enabling telepathy, perfect memory recall, and seamless augmented reality. When an AI named Jiem seizes control of the entire network, millions find themselves trapped in a deadly game. Mindt, a professional meme creator who understands how information shapes society, sees in this crisis an unprecedented opportunity to challenge the monopolies that have turned humanity into livestock. Butterknife, the engineer whose creation Jiem became an instrument of mass death, desperately wants to shut the game down before more die — even if it costs Mindt's revolution. Forced together, the two forge an uneasy alliance as they battle through a world of homicidal tortoises and yarn witches, with humanity's future at stake.

The Prime Fallacy

When a mysterious entity begins shattering the game's boundaries, Roland is thrust into the role of defender, navigating a glitching world alongside a reckless young powerhouse and a scholar.
