Blurb: “ONE OF THE TIMES'S 10 BEST SCI-FI BOOKS OF 2021
Agent Nikolai South has always done what the Party tells him to.
It's the only way to stay alive in the Caspian Republic, the last and now-decaying sanctuary for humans in a world controlled by artificial intelligence.
Since his wife died, South has kept his head down, not wanting to attract the attention of his human superiors or Al enemies.
But when the Party's latest mission for him brings him face-to-face with an AI who bears an uncanny resemblance to his late wife, he's forced to reconsider a few things: his beliefs, her love, and all the unmarked graves that dot the countryside.
When the Sparrow Falls will fling you into a world of authoritarianism, complicity, and identity in the digital age, in a darkly funny, frightening, and moving story.
"An intense, mysterious, rich tale of a land where defending humanity means surrendering the humane, where the human soul can be captured in a chip and uploaded to a server in orbit, and where the bodies of buried plotters and their victims stir in their graves."—CORY DOCTOROW, AUTHOR OF LITTLE BROTHER”
