Artificial Underworld (en Inglés) - Jarran Carr

Dr. Katarm Lhexlyn was meant to revolutionize medicine. Instead, his work helped trigger a catastrophe that killed millions. Branded a monster, he is erased from history and exiled into Argo-a vast underground world where time is violently compressed and decades pass while the surface world barely moves.

But Argo is only the first layer. Deeper still lies Reser, where time fractures further and a single day can contain a lifetime.

There, an impossible event occurs: a forbidden child is born. With the aid of artificial intelligences, the child uncovers evidence that civilization itself is approaching collapse. From outside the flow of conventional time, Argo's hidden world reveals what the surface cannot see-fragile political systems, mounting instability, and a future in which advanced technology will crumble into myth.

Now the question is no longer whether disaster is coming.

It is whether a man who has been erased from existence can help a child who should never have been born-and whether together they can warn a world that will never believe them.

The author grew up with severe dyslexia and struggled with reading well into elementary school, an experience that shaped both a vivid imagination and a lifelong curiosity about how people think. After earning a bachelor's degree in mathematics and working as a software engineer, he joined the U.S. Army in his mid-thirties, serving with the 82nd Airborne Division, where exposure to unfiltered human courage and authenticity profoundly influenced his worldview. He began writing accidentally-as a typing exercise-only to discover a deep love for storytelling. His work is driven by a desire to bridge imagination and reality, exploring human nature through speculative fiction. He lives a happily ordinary life with his wife and children.
