Overview

The Palimpsest Protocol is a breathtaking work of speculative fiction that blends the emotional intimacy of character-driven storytelling with the sharp philosophical edge of dystopian science fiction. Shadab Alam Khanson has crafted a world where memory is currency, identity is negotiable, and truth flickers like a glitch in a carefully coded reality. What makes this novel exceptional is its ability to balance scale and soul. The world-building is intricate yet never overwhelming; each chapter deepens the mystery while revealing how profoundly human the stakes truly are. Lila Noor is one of the most compelling protagonists in recent sci-fi - a woman caught between duty, empathy, and the terrifying possibility that her entire life may be a constructed lie. Khanson's prose is luminous, poetic without losing clarity, and his thematic exploration of erasure, trauma, and reclaimed identity feels not only timely but essential. The action is gripping, the emotional beats land with weight, and the final chapters deliver a rare combination of heartbreak, hope, and intellectual satisfaction. A bold, visionary novel. It stands comfortably beside modern classics like The Matrix, Black Mirror, and Never Let Me Go. A must-read.
