Kaaro is a government agent with a criminal past. He has seen inside the biodome, and doesn't care to again -- but when something begins killing off others like himself, Kaaro must defy his masters to search for an answer, facing his dark history and coming to a realization about a horrifying future.

Excellent sci-fi experience
There’s a cyberpunk vibe to it. I both want to see a movie or series of it and don’t, cause I’m worried they’d ruin it. Amazing story and world building. Highly recommend!
Amazing
Certain books are MADE to be read as audiobooks and this is one of them. You’re doing yourself a disservice by missing out on the immersive experience. Listening to this makes the whole thing play out in your head. So well-written. The world building is second to none and I love the recurring themes and multiple timelines that it takes place across. Please check it out.
