Fire. Bullets. Blades. An army of machines bent on his capture, and destroying and killing everyone—and everything— around him.

And Silas thought that his lonely existence sucked before the car crash…at least then, there weren’t Bio-Droids hunting him for sport in a post-apocalyptic world dominated by A.I. and robots.

Silas was a normal teenage kid before the crash. Normal except for his growing apathy with society and the world around him, made worse by a recent tragedy—an accident he is responsible for. There will be no closure or forgiveness. Only an immense, insurmountable guilt he feels he can never confront or escape.

But then, Silas’ life is violently turned upside-down, both literally and figuratively, in a terrifying car accident. Now, his past problems pale in comparison to his current predicament, where somehow, he’s regained consciousness from the crash in a dystopian, post-apocalyptic hell-hole decades into the future, with partial amnesia and a new metal body, designed for battle and equipped with an arm cannon.

Now, he’s on the run from killer droids, and the army of automatons they control. The only way for him to save the remaining population of humanity and recover his memory is to go directly into the heart of the beast, and forcefully assimilate the abilities—called ‘Protocols’—of his most powerful enemies.
