The Architects’ Seed

The Architects' Seed by Brinda PhokeerdassBeneath the poisoned skies of a ruined Earth, Leo has lived his whole life in the Burrow - a fortress of rust, ritual, and fear of the world above. But when a pulse of alien static floods his veins with light, he discovers a truth buried for centuries: the "demon" Bloom is a living network, seeded by a dying race, and it has chosen him as its conductor. With a girl whose pacemaker hums to the same rhythm, Leo is drawn into a war between faith and adaptation, past and future - and every choice will shape the rebirth, or extinction, of humankind.
