Cedes thought she knew what we were to the machines but she was wrong, and the ragged band of human survivors must now learn to stay alive in a city under siege. But it's not just the machines they must contend with -- it's human against human and machines against all. /

As Cedes and Luke struggle to survive, new and surprising leaders emerge. Leaders who want to tear each other and the broken city apart to find the hidden secrets that will reveal the story of the human race. The story of us.

Will this path lead to redemption, the destruction of everything they hold dear, or will it lead to mankind's final days on Earth?
