As a Porter, Bishop's primary job profile is decrypting synergists used in the development of Matrix for the brain. A support mechanism which allows the brain to thrive in a new world the human race find themselves, one which has suffered major depletion as a result of man's zest for development, hence, the exodus to Phase I--formerly called the moon. But not everyone left for Phase I. Somewhere in the highly unstable and reactive Sector 16 of Bathfog Ruins back at Phase II is the Eureka Elgium synergist, a key factor to the revolutionary Afterlife Matrix. Bishop's next job. Joined by a team of the finest squad in Phase II, Bishop sets out for Bathfog Ruins, but when their airship crash-land in the ruins, everything changes. Certain truths are unraveled about the government's scheme, their lives are threatened by unusual beings and Mecha hit men. And when the biggest fact of all is revealed, Bishop realizes he's more valuable than he knows and his real job is staying alive. *Current cover by @AAKhan

Axel Grout is a genius with numbers, a disaster with people. But online, he's unstoppable. From his Academy pod, he breaks into the dark web-battling cyberfreaks, outwitting punks, roaming hidden realms under his alias. Until he meets his match in sissyboy5. The Schoester Academy is no ordinary school. It's a haven for the strange and exceptional-kids whose minds don't follow straight lines, who think in music, numbers, or algorithms, and who don't quite fit anywhere else. But when a student vanishes, the system starts to crack, and Axel is drawn into a conspiracy bigger than he imagined. His questions about consciousness, time, and truth suddenly have real-world consequences. For fans of Ender's Game, Black Mirror, and cyberpunk thrillers, Exhibit A explores the illusion of control in the digital world-and what happens when the mask slips.

"-and then the professor said..." Amara's voice trailed off as she noticed Yakov's intense gaze. "What?" He didn't respond, his eyes darkening as he stepped closer to her. The air between them grew thick, charged with an electricity that made Amara's breath hitch. She stopped walking, her heart pounding in her chest. "Yakov?" she whispered, her voice trembling. He closed the distance between them, his hand brushing against her cheek. His touch was firm, almost possessive, and she froze. His thumb traced the curve of her lower lip, and she felt a shiver run down her spine. "You talk too much," he murmured, his voice low and rough. Before she could respond, he dipped his head and captured her lips in a kiss. It wasn't gentle or tentative-it was rough, demanding, and full of hunger. His hand slid to the back of her neck, holding her in place as he deepened the kiss. Amara gasped, her hands instinctively gripping his shirt for balance.
