OPTIMIZER OF SOULS
Author: Julian Christian
GENRE: Science Fiction
When her mentor Professor Williams disappears after discovering a fatal flaw in SENTINEL's perfect system, Maya must navigate a world where every thought is monitored and every emotion optimized. With help from James Reed, a damaged neural interface designer haunted by helping create humanity's perfect prison, she uncovers evidence that could shatter SENTINEL's control - if they survive long enough to use it.But in a city where surveillance drones hunt for behavioral anomalies and optimization protocols spread through quantum networks, Maya confronts a terrifying possibility: what if perfect control isn't their enemy? What if human consciousness is evolving into something beyond both chaos and control?
Excerpt
Two:
Through her pain, Maya watches optimization protocols flow
through the crowd like invisible rivers. She sees how each person's neural
implants respond to corporate commands, adjusting thoughts and feelings to
maintain perfect social harmony. The amount of control happening around her is
overwhelming - too much for even her enhanced systems to process clearly.
Her military tech usually filters all this information,
making it manageable for her human brain to understand. But with so many
optimized minds in one place, all following Sentinel’s perfect patterns, the
filters are failing. Raw data crashes against her consciousness like waves
against a beach, each new surge bringing more pain.
The migraine builds as her enhanced vision tries to show her
everything at once - the neural patterns of thousands of workers, the hidden
messages in corporate announcements, the subtle signs of Sentinel’s control
woven through every surface and signal. It's like having super-powerful eyes
that can't close, forced to watch every detail of how thoroughly humanity has
been optimized.
