About this audiobook

Inferno is the first book in The Necessary God trilogy, a speculative science fiction series about collapse, coordination, and the limits of human decision-making. In 2035, the world has not ended, but it no longer coordinates itself. Climate instability, pandemics, war, and automation have turned order into a technical problem. As institutions keep functioning under permanent strain, everyday life begins to absorb the cost. Part political fiction, part systemic dystopia, Inferno explores a world that still works, but only barely.
