Dive into State Tectonics, the gripping final entry in Malka Older's bestselling science fiction trilogy, The Centenal Cycle

This electrifying technothriller transports us five years into the path of Information's last election, where sabotage, a major network outage, and a catastrophic earthquake once threatened to shatter micro-democracy. Now, it’s time to vote again. The system that has guarded global tranquility for a quarter-century stands more vulnerable than ever.

In the deep shadows, unknown adversaries strike at Information's network infrastructure. Vintage superpowers, spies, and revolutionaries hone their weapons. Even Information's top agents grapple with the dilemma–should they save the data monopoly they've pledged their lives to or begin a fresh start amidst the ashes?
