The Jade Labyrinth by Willow Lane Publishing ~ Blog Tour & Giveaway https://bit.ly/3LQKGUh

In The Jade Labyrinth a young rebel leader undertakes a perilous mission to reprogram the artificially intelligent rulers of a colonial empire, traversing through hostile landscapes and braving grueling mental and physical challenges.

Genre: Science Fiction / Fantasy
Age category: Young Adult
Release Date: 12 September, 2023

Blurb:

A meeting. A maze. A perilous journey back to an Empire on the edge of chaos.

Walter Saltanetska, leader of the Jade Rebellion, is nearly ready to return to the heart of the AI-ruled Empire that has branded him a treasonous fugitive. His mandate is clear: to reprogram the AI Masters before their earth-destroying habits spiral out of control.

First, he must brave gruelling training in a land fraught with danger—rugged mountains haunted by spirits, a parched desert patrolled by watchful drones, and a labyrinthine cave guarded by armed robots. As his physical, mental, and magical abilities are tested by harrowing encounters, Walter must work to resist forces that threaten to destabilize his mission.

The biggest threat he faces is not one he encounters along the course of his journey, but one that originates within him. Walter returns to the Empire’s capital in a mind-altering disguise that proves to be a double-edged sword. Drawing him closer to a soul mate who rekindles his admiration for the AI Masters, it also distances Walter from the human emotions that sparked his desire to join the Rebellion. In his final showdown with the AI Masters, Walter must keep his mind under control, or risk jeopardizing the mission that he and his allies are counting on to reverse a looming tidal wave of destruction.

The thrilling third installment in The Jade Chronicles, The Jade Labyrinth weaves dystopian science-fiction with high fantasy while exploring an essential subject: the perils and promise of artificial intelligence.

This book was a phenomenal book about a futuristic complex world. Humans verses Artificial Intelligence makes up a tale of who’s more superior and who’s more vulnerable. Walter was looking for his missing girlfriend and learned there was more to her disappearance than he bargained for. The people he meets and what he discovers, turns his world upside down. This book is full of intrigue, complicated relationships and espionage. I really loved this story and read it slowly so I wouldn’t miss a thing. I’m looking forward to reading the next book in this series because there is so much still to happen. I highly recommend this book because it’s so interesting and engrossing.
