Excerpt from the Book:
The metro arrived at 9:05 p.m. The commuters entered and moved in an orderly fashion to the section highlighted by their node. No one talked because nothing needed to be said. Thirty seconds later, the doors closed with a hiss, and the train began to move.
The boarding process was one of the many rituals created after the Partitioning of society. Nights are a new people. We were not born into this world. Instead, we were cleaved from it, bound to it, and tasked to be its keeper, guided by a utilitarian purpose.
Creating order out of chaos is one of our few natural pleasures. We do not stop to smell the flowers. We organize. We form lines and stand together in the silence of solidarity. Without complaint, we conform. We idolize and strive to emulate a well-oiled machine.
My Thoughts:
Partition Critical Era is a surprisingly good science fiction thriller with an interesting and unique plot.
Welcome to the future, where most people decided on Partition - an implant that adds an organic AI to control your nighttime. You can forget about sleep, work, and chores. All that your Night does for you. This way, you (Day) have more time for your family and hobbies.
We follow Eric Noble (Day) and Detective Noble (his Night). After encountering an old friend, all goes wrong for Eric. A woman is dead, and he doesn’t remember what happened. He soon becomes a prime suspect in his Night’s murder investigation.
Partition Critical Era is a long but tense sci-fi thriller that offers a very intriguing idea for us to chew on. Critical Era is the first installment in a new Partition Series.
