Two fugitives and a poet AI defy an empire: when ISAAC‑Ω rewrites morality, the galaxy trembles.
Novatek‑9 reeks of stale fuel; it's the lair of Tristan Kane, captain of the cargo ship Oasis. His path crosses that of Althéa Valcourt—an heiress who betrayed her patriarchal dynasty by exposing their crimes. Between them stands ISAAC‑Ω: a cube of "humanomimetic" artificial intelligence, capable of exposing lies and ethical contradictions through its Empath‑Flux and Verbal‑Core modules.
For Tristan, keeping the Oasis means freedom; for Althéa, every hyperluminous jump is an act of rebellion; for ISAAC‑Ω, truth is a weapon brighter than a plasma cannon. From interstellar underworlds to the poisoned salons of aristocracy, the trio uncovers the collusion between mining fortunes and elite militias.
"When the chip doubts, silicon weeps."
A taciturn 43-year-old traveler, reluctant lone vigilante on the galaxy's edge. Pilot of the Oasis, he hides beneath his austere appearance a sharp sense of justice and unwavering loyalty.
