Cycle 1 (Paperback)

Paperback. Some secrets are buried. Others are contained.When a catastrophic power grid failure strikes the subterranean depths of Morgan Core Industries, Subject XZ-01 breaks stasis with no identity, no history, and a single hardwired objective: descend to the core.Armed with a hydraulic plasma slag-cutter and hardwired combat subroutines, he must carve his way through legions of mutated Revenants and spatial anomalies. Guided only by a delusional, cognitively trapped corporate director trapped in an eleven-year-old memory loop, XZ-01 must reach the abyssal observation tier to face the OverMind.In a facility where corporate governance meets extradimensional madness, breaking the cycle may be the only way to survive it.Cycle 1 is a high-octane, atmospheric fusion of military science fiction, cyberpunk bio-augmentation, and Lovecraftian cosmic horror.
