In a world threatened by an unstoppable man-made plague, our only hope is a revolutionary computer system capable of simulating hundreds of worlds, each populated by artificial life forms allowed to evolve in ways divergent from Earth. These digital humans have no idea that they are only programs, living simulated lives and secretly observed by employees of a corporation monitoring them for new technology which they hope will help save the real Earth. This is Cyberdrome.

Alek Grey breaks into secure computers for a living. When Cyberdrome calls him in after their system is attacked by one of his stolen programs, he’s shocked to learn that the attack may have helped create the answer to their prayers; the world’s first smarter-than-human computer intelligence. An unlikely hero who doubts his own capabilities, Alek seems an odd choice to save Cyberdrome, but when his ex-fiancée becomes trapped in the simulations, unable to be removed from interface without risk of brain death, he realizes there’s only one way left to rescue the woman he still loves.

But, will he risk the fate of all humanity to save her?
