An impossible world.
Deeply human stakes.

Some search for answers.
Some have to decide what to do with them.

Dorian stands full length on a Martian terrace above an artificial sea and distant lighthouse.Dorian · The father

The father

He knows how to
fix what is broken.

A habitat maintenance worker, husband and father. Dorian has no special training for an impossible disappearance. Only his tools, his stubborn attention to small things, and the people he cannot stop looking for.

Finding an answer begins with asking a better question.

Characters from The Last AI Signal
Eshara in a flowing teal and bronze garment, standing among sunlit spires and reflective pools on Planet 0.
Planet 0 · Eshara’s world · An artistic interpretation

Eshara / Planet 0

Beauty from
another world.

Amber eyes. Delicate branching ridges. A quiet presence among impossible spires. On Planet 0, Eshara belongs to a world as beautiful as it is unfamiliar.

But beauty is only the first impression. She has work to do, rules to follow and reasons to stay silent. The person behind that silence matters as much as the mystery around her.

What lies behind the Veiled Court?

A name. An alien order. More questions than answers.

Can trust cross between worlds?

Dorian searches for what he has lost. Eshara’s world asks him to look beyond what he knows.

Meet Eshara

The known. The lost. The concealed.

How far does
the mystery reach?

Three ways into the world.
No answers given away.

A deserted coastal smart city on Mars, with automated transit and red cliffs.

MARS / THE CITY WITHOUT PEOPLE

A future that forgot us.

Protected districts. Automated trains. Deliveries arriving on time. Humanity built a city that could look after itself. Now it does.

Visual interpretations of the novel’s worlds

A city. A signal. An unanswered question.

Everything works.
Nothing makes sense.

The buses still stop. Deliveries still arrive. On Mars, an empty city keeps working for the people who are no longer there.

Dorian searches for his family with Tony, his son’s old AI companion. Every working machine feels like a clue. Every familiar street hides something he cannot explain.

Earth is a memory. Mars is a question. Planet 0 waits beyond the familiar. And the name of an alien faction surfaces: the Veiled Court. What is watching—and what has been missed?

Meet the people behind the signal
Dorian tends a greenhouse beside Tony and a pair of small boots left beneath the workbench.
Life goes on. Even when no one answers.

A language only a family knows

Where are you?

Three taps. A pause. One more.
A small game. A way to find each other.

A moment from the language of the book.
