The machine that promised to save humanity rebuilt tyranny.
Twenty years after the world collapsed, the mega-corporation TerraTech rose from the ashes-ruling what's left of humanity through digital currency, killer Bots, and MAX, an all-seeing AI that governs through neural implants called MAX-Chips.
Those with Chips thrive. Those without starve.
Mateo has spent his entire life among the forgotten, watching friends die from diseases that only kill the poor. When his best friend Toivo is diagnosed with the Withering-a fatal illness a Chip could cure-Mateo's search for help draws him into a web of corporate secrets, forbidden technology, and resistance he never meant to join.
There he meets Anita, daughter of a TerraTech warlord and leader of a rebel crew with one impossible goal: destroy MAX and free humanity from corporate rule.
As the crew battles toward TerraTech's headquarters, Mateo uncovers a truth that changes everything.
But in a world built on lies, the greatest deception may be MAX itself.
MAX Protocol is a fast-paced young adult dystopian sci-fi thriller about friendship, vengeance, and the cost of freedom-perfect for fans of The Hunger Games, Divergent, and The Maze Runner.
A Personal Note from the Author: This novel was written as a tribute to the legacy of my late cousin, Max, and fueled by the strength of my late grandfather, Tata.Also from
