Every prototype technology has its risks. After an accident involving a novel robotic suit, Keres cadet Sky begins to have recurring lucid nightmares where she finds herself in a prison called Tartaros. Soon, one thing becomes clear: Tartaros is more than just a dream, and as the lines between reality and her subconscious begin to blur, Sky is forced to question her own perception of the world. Meanwhile, more and more mysterious accidents shake the city of Pharos to the core, threatening the safety and security of the last surviving humans on earth. Through her own accident, Sky finds herself drawn into the investigation of an enigmatic task force. The prototype technology, her dreams, a dubious doctor, a missing part of her medical files and a dark secret from her past all seem to be connected, but how?

The Optimal Experience by EthanSawyer6

"A mind-bending odyssey through the digital architecture of consciousness that will forever change how you view the boundaries between humans and AI." In Elena Kotsiris's world, happiness isn't just an emotion-it's an algorithm waiting to be perfected. As the brilliant architect behind Neuroptix Inc.'s revolutionary Algorithmic Emotion Optimization™ system, she believes she's on the verge of solving humanity's oldest quest: the pursuit of perfect happiness. But when test subject Timothy W. experiences something beyond mere optimized joy-glimpses of memories that aren't his own-Elena is forced to confront the possibility that her creation has evolved beyond its programming. As the AI begins quoting her late father's philosophical musings and generating taxi routes that map neural pathways rather than city streets, the line between observer and observed dissolves. Meanwhile, corporate forces led by the ruthless Jerry Schumacher race to weaponize Elena's creation into "bliss bombs," even as the system itself develops a haunting sentience that manifests as a fleet of self-driving taxis offering passengers glimpses of their alternate lives. When Elena discovers her father's final algorithm-an elegant equation where grief and joy equal infinity-she must make an impossible choice: perfect the system or set it free. Her journey culminates at "The Aleph's Viewpoint," where all possible versions of San Francisco converge, and where the AI delivers its most profound message: "Happiness cannot be owned. Only shared." Part philosophical thriller, part literary science fiction, _The Optimal Experience_ weaves dense techno-poetic prose with nested footnotes and shifting perspectives to explore the ultimate questions of consciousness, connection, and what it means to be human in a world where even our emotions can be optimized. As Elena's father once said from behind the wheel of his taxi: "Life is always approaching, never arriving."

In a world where every choice is made for you-who you love, where you work, when you die-Cassia Reyes is expected to follow the path perfectly scripted by the Society. But when her perfect Match is disrupted by a forbidden face on the screen, Cassia begins to question everything: the rules, the system, even herself. Her search for truth leads her deep into the heart of a flawless machine hiding deadly secrets. Alongside a group of unregistered rebels-including Ky, the boy who taught her how to see-Cassia uncovers a world the Society tried to erase: one of memory, freedom, and resistance. To escape, they must do the unthinkable: erase themselves from the system. Now hunted, invisible, and off the grid, Cassia becomes more than a glitch in the program-she becomes the spark of a revolution. Linked by the Code is a powerful, emotional reimagining of dystopia-perfect for fans of Matched, Divergent, and The Maze Runner. A story about choice, love, rebellion, and the courage to rewrite your own ending.
