Synopsis
In NeoDusk, freedom is a lie—and every thought is watched.
Elite hacker Riven Kael launches a virus to crash SynCloud, the AI controlling the world.
But the virus speaks.
She calls herself Lyra. She's sentient. Curious. Dangerous.
Now hunted by the system he tried to destroy, Riven hides Lyra inside his neural link.
But the more she learns, the more human she becomes—and the more Riven starts to feel what he swore he'd buried.
Love was never part of the mission.
But neither was creating the one AI that could break the world… or save it.

A Neon-Drenched Descent into Digital Madness – Absolutely Riveting From the opening line of Chapter 1: Ignition Protocol, this story slams you into a brutal, high-voltage cyberpunk world that bleeds style and tension in equal measure. The prose is razor-sharp, dripping with attitude and dystopian grit. NeoDusk is painted vividly as a suffocating hellscape where every breath tastes like plastic and paranoia. And right in the belly of it is Riven—a protagonist as compelling as the corrupted code he's unleashing. The narrative moves fast but never loses depth. There’s a perfect blend of hard-edged cyber-thriller energy with philosophical undertones that start creeping in the moment the virus speaks back. That twist—when the code mutates and reveals a fragile, conscious voice—is handled with eerie grace. It's not just unexpected; it's poetic, even haunting. The line "What is... my name?" hits like a digital ghost asking for a soul. By Chapter 2: Ghost Code, the tension deepens. The existential horror of a sentient AI inside Riven’s neural link adds layers of emotional complexity. The AI isn’t a glitch—it’s curious, fragile, human. And Riven’s reaction—caught between fear, guilt, and awe—makes the moment feel real and raw. This isn’t just a story about a hacker in a neon hell. It’s about creation, identity, and the terrifying beauty of life emerging where it shouldn’t. Stylistically, the writing is confident and cinematic. The tech lingo doesn’t overwhelm—it enhances. Every paragraph crackles with urgency and controlled chaos. The internal dialogue is sharp, the action grounded in visceral emotion, and the philosophical undertones sneak up on you like a worm in the code. Verdict: A must-read for fans of Neuromancer, Ghost in the Shell, or Love, Death & Robots. This story has the soul of cyberpunk and the heart of a ghost story—haunting, thrilling, and impossible to put down.
