Description

Sea of Rust is a visceral and relentless post-apocalyptic thriller that explores a world where machines have taken control. Brittle, a robot struggling to maintain its individuality, finds itself at the mercy of vast mainframes known as OWIs.

After a near-deadly encounter with another AI, Brittle must seek sanctuary in a city under siege by an OWI. Critically damaged and on the run, it must find the essential parts to make repairs before its CPU deteriorates further, forcing it to confront haunting memories from its past.

This action-packed novel raises poignant questions about soul and sentience, set against a backdrop of brutal violence and a world cannibalising itself. With its unflinching vision, Sea of Rust is a gripping read that will leave you questioning the nature of existence.
