Overview

"The only thing worse than the abandoned mall is the world outside. Sam moved into the mall voluntarily. She accepted the heavy collar mounted on her neck and the title of ""Serf."" It's better than living outside in the hellish Slumland, all that's left of our civilization since the AI's algorithm declared humanity obsolete. She's really no different from all the other desperate people who live in the mall with her to escape the lawless world outside... even if she does have a secret that would terrify them all. When Sam refuses to accept her role in the mall experiment, her defiance drives her to a dreadful choice. Wait for the people conducting the experiment to come and get her. Or go out all alone into the horrors of Slumland. ***If you love stories like Brave New World, Murderbot, and Westworld you're going to love Taya DeVere's Machina Deus series! ***Get free early access to short stories and other exclusive content by signing up for my newsletter @TayaDeVere (dot) com!"
