Roots Of Osidian

For three hundred years, the survivors of Anchor-Home have clung to the shadows of the Southern Vents, scavenging the rusted remains of a world they no longer understand. In a land frozen by the "Archive"-a cold, clinical security system left behind by the departed Sky-People-life is a glitch, and humanity is merely a biological impurity waiting to be erased. Kaelen is a Rigger, a man who fixes what is broken to keep his people breathing.
But when he discovers a silver-scaled gauntlet that pulses with the forbidden "Source Code" of the ancients, he inadvertently triggers a planetary awakening. As the "First Rain" falls for the first time in centuries, it brings more than just water; it unleashes a primal, tectonic hunger from the planet's heart and summons the Sky-People back to finish their "Total Purge." Caught between a machine god that wants to delete him and a planet that wants to consume him, Kaelen must lead a band of outcasts to do the impossible: rewrite the laws of reality.
To save his home, he must stop being a scavenger of the past and become the architect of a new evolution. The Sky-People think the world is a library. Kaelen is about to show them it's a jungle. ROOTS OF OBSIDIAN
