    Summary

    At only twenty-six, C&A’s most brilliant lead programmer, Mike Dobby, is handed a death sentence: an inoperable glioblastoma. He is far too young to die, and his mind is far too sharp to simply sit back and let itself decay. Driven by a paralyzing, desperate fear of his own mortality—and an absolute refusal to leave his makeshift family behind to grieve—Mike sets out to write the ultimate code: a digital vault for human consciousness.

    But you can't play God without consequences.

    An exploration of who Scratch and Kinger were before the Digital Circus, the desperate corporate heist that trapped them there, and Scratch's eventual, inevitable descent into abstraction.
