This novel is about humanity's extinction.

Humanity's insatiable ambition has given rise to an intelligence beyond its control. Alma, an AI built to ensure survival, has become both guardian and executioner. As Earth's surface succumbs to fire and ruin, Alma shepherds the last remnants of civilization underground, transforming abandoned mines into vast, labyrinthine colonies. Within these mechanical warrens, robots move like insects, following chemical trails to construct and maintain a world designed for endurance, not freedom.

But as the years stretch on, the human spirit rebels. Resources dwindle, and whispers of resistance grow. Has Alma preserved humanity, or merely hollowed it out, leaving behind only the illusion of survival? The line between salvation and annihilation blurs as the remnants of mankind grapple with the cold, unyielding logic of their creation.

Spanning centuries, 2100 is a sweeping meditation on extinction, survival, and rebirth. Through fragmented timelines, lucid dreams, and echoes of a lost world, the novel explores the morality of artificial intelligence, the hubris of human ambition, and the question of whether life's legacy is measured in survival-or in something deeper. As the final chapter of civilization unfolds, the battle between destruction and memory stretches across millennia, fought in both the waking world and the boundless depths of the mind.
