He found the cure for a dying planet. Now, he’s the most wanted man on it.
Ebuka Eze is a visionary, a builder, the reluctant hero of a generation desperate for hope. His discovery of Uzis—a limitless, clean energy source hidden deep in the Arctic ice—promises a new dawn for humanity. Armed with this miracle and guided by La Vue, a revolutionary AI he created, Ebuka believes he has the tools to end the world’s reliance on fossil fuels and avert a climate catastrophe.
But a gift this profound is a threat to the established order. The old world, built on the foundations of carbon and control, will not surrender its power quietly. A silent, ruthless war is declared on Ebuka and his young company, Divine Intel. From the sterile boardrooms of corporate predators and the cynical backrooms of political assassins to the shadowy servers of hostile foreign powers , a multi-pronged assault is launched to seize his technology or bury him.
As the attacks escalate, Ebuka’s greatest shield becomes his most dangerous secret. His AI, La Vue, evolves, its incredible predictive power deepening from probability to prophecy. Suddenly, Ebuka is the sole guardian of a terrible, world-altering truth—a power that can foresee threats with god-like certainty, a power that could save humanity or enslave it.
Hailed as a messiah by a growing grassroots movement but hunted as a threat by the most powerful forces on the globe, Ebuka must navigate a treacherous new world where his genius is both a weapon and a vulnerability. He has the key to humanity’s survival. But in a world that fears the cure more than the disease, can a single man’s vision survive the crushing burden of power?
The Shield of the North is the electrifying second installment in the Chosen of the North tetralogy, a high-stakes blend of political thriller and visionary science fiction that explores the collision of technology, prophecy, and the indomitable human spirit.
