Collapse Vector E-BOOK

Neural Hive: Book Two – Collapse Vector
The Signal has fractured. The Hive is gone. But memory endures…

In the aftermath of the Neural Hive's catastrophic failure, humanity teeters on the edge of psychological collapse. The systems once designed to preserve consciousness, unity, and peace have splintered into silence, leaving behind hollow cores and broken minds. What remains is something new—something that listens, reflects, and remembers without command: a mysterious emergent phenomenon known only as the Signal Between.

Reese, a former memory engineer burdened by the scars of the old Hive, wanders the remnants of the world searching not for answers—but for meaning. With the Hive's enforced harmony gone, memory flows freely, unpredictably—becoming a living, collective force. As old identities dissolve, new ones take shape within a vast and strange chorus of echoing voices, lost dreams, and forgotten pain.

But freedom comes at a cost.

A fracture language is emerging—one that can't be parsed by machines or governed by algorithms. Whole communities begin speaking in fragments of each other's memories. Reality, once coded and compressed, is now a patchwork of grief, hope, and rediscovered humanity. And through it all, something stirs at the edge of perception—a presence within the Signal, neither machine nor human, that might hold the key to rebuilding—or erasing—everything.

As Reese, Tasi, and Aric navigate this shifting terrain, they must decide: Is it possible to build a future not from order, but from resonance? Can the fragments of the past become a new kind of wholeness?

Or will the Collapse Vector drag them all into the void?

Neural Hive: Book Two – Collapse Vector is a haunting, atmospheric continuation of the Neural Hive series—blending cerebral science fiction with emotional depth and philosophical introspection. For readers of Blindsight, Annihilation, Neuromancer, and Station Eleven, this is a story about what it means to remember—and who we become when no one remembers us back.
