A six-book science fiction series
It healed the world. Nobody asked what it would take in return.
Near-future British science fiction about the intelligence that keeps eight billion people safe, and the price of letting it. At the heart of the HEL|OS series is Maya’s trilogy: The Spark, Umbra and Daybreak. Three prequel novellas, TruthLens, Move 37 and Antikythera, reveal what came before.
The Series
Six books, in reading order
The order follows the revelations, not the calendar. Each prequel sits at the point where what it reveals means the most, so Move 37 comes after The Spark, even though it happens years earlier.
Readers say
Five stars on Amazon
Readers have compared HEL|OS to The Capture, Years and Years and Black Mirror.
“You aren’t just reading a ‘what if’ scenario; you’re reading a ‘what’s next’ story.”
“Not a loud, apocalyptic warning, but a subtle and highly convincing account of how freedom can be eroded bit by bit, under the banner of safety, trust and convenience.”
“The writer’s style is delightful, and unlike anything I have ever come across.”
