An additional question for the group. How much description of horror do you need to see in blurb to pique your interest? The horror element in Devel Django is more psychological, but the book at its heart is a thriller. Which blurb hints at more horror?Dr. Brad Bradley, M.I.T. professor of Astrobiology is surprised by a rogue meteor storm in the Italian Alps. Hoping to finally make his ‘great discovery’, he accidentally exposes himself to a forgotten virus that decades ago left several people dying with “itchy voices in their heads.”
Tracking the rogue storm is General Keller, a man warped from anguish over his own son’s similar fate, and who will stop at nothing to discover what really happened.
Cora, Brad’s brilliant but troubled colleague, and her breakthrough A.I., begin analyzing the infection and make a startling discovery—proof of our origins lie within the infection, and within Brad.
As General Keller deploys all his resources to recover a sample—of storm debris, or anyone infected—Brad and Cora are thrust into his disturbed world and a deadly chase ensues.
Will the discovery be lost forever? Will they survive? …or will the general capture them alive?
On a remote mountainside in the Italian Alps, a rich and diverse world of characters collide as they seek to understand the discovery of the Dark Wave.
Brad and Cora, colleagues from M.I.T., are surprised by a rogue meteor storm that is eerily reminiscent of the Australian Incident which left several people dying with—itchy voices in their heads. One of them becomes infected.
General Keller, the head of a black-ops company and father of a son who died with—itchy voices in his head, wants to recover a sample—of debris, or anyone infected—and learn what happened to his son.
Ian, an African-British military analyst, and Pr0m3th3us, a non-binary dark-web hacker, form an unlikely alliance as their needs drive them into the dark underworld of Internet secrets.
Finally, as Cora’s A.I. creation–Ali–uncovers the significance of the infection-discovery; a theoretical force it describes as the Dark Wave—a theory that if proven would rewrite the history of humankind—Ian and Pr0m3th3us fight to save Brad and Cora; Ali works to protect the discovery and the general fights to capture them all!
DEVEL DJANGO, a near-future thriller, whispers at the fundamental question of humankind—Where did we come from? —and gropes at the undefined space between science and religion. It is a unique tapestry woven with coarse threads of horror, hybrid metal synapses and detailed with a fine, ancient brush from a long-lost palate of knowledge.
