Following up the two previous novels, Ezekiel’s Brain (2020) and Prime Directive (2023). The Gaia Paradox will be released on July, 7, 2026. The series is published by science fiction publisher, NewLink Publishing, an imprint of Mystic Publishers.
The Gaia Paradox follows the starship Delphi, with its crew of superintelligent androids, Siaree, an empathic human, and Ezekiel, an AI copy of a human brain, on a peacekeeping mission to the planet Travoli, the home of an imperialistic race who treat AIs as slaves. The Delphi’s mission becomes one of rescue to save Travolian ships that have encountered a strange asteroid, which contains a complete world inside it, and harbors a deadly virus that turns humans into cannibalistic monsters. Ezekiel and the rest of the crew must find the source of the virus and neutralize it, then decide the fate of the asteroid. A high-tech, philosophical, mystery and adventure which examines the relationship of AIs to humans in a future world. Although it is the third and final novel in the Voyages of the Delphi series, The Gaia Paradox can just as easily be read as a stand-alone novel.
