Armand Ptolemy was just an ordinary man, until he unlocked the secrets of an ancient Egyptian AI. Now, he's racing against time and sinister forces to save not just his inheritance, but the future of humanity.
When Armand discovers that his brothers have cheated him out of his inheritance, he is plunged into a secret world of synchronicity engines, karma cryptocurrencies, ancient "living information" and modern artificial intelligences.
Now he must fight a quantum / mystically-hip shadow organization called Concordia—something, he quickly discovers, that his own father was a part of...“If you enjoy science fiction, philosophy, action, adventure, duels, ancient civilizations, futurist technologies, romance, unexpected twists and turns, and a good old fashioned kick-ass ride, you'll find plenty to love.”
As Armand delves deeper, he discovers that the future of humanity is at stake. He must act fast. With danger around every corner, this mind blowing tale will linger long after it is finished.
Blending the latest in modern technologies with ancient lore, The Name and the Shadow pits Armand against real sinister forces as he races to uncover his father's history—while falling in love with "living information" made flesh in the beguiling Sophia.
An action adventure packed with speculation on the nature of the latest AI's like ChatGPT, Jungian concepts and our true place in the universe! Join Armand on this astonishing quest into our near future, today.

Pros: excellent story approach and very original.
Self read by author is better than expected.
Cons: it feels like there are many things a good editor could make less, “clunky?”
With an experienced narrator I feel like it would make this book much easier to listen to.
To the author, get a better editor and a good reader. I had to run at 0.85 speed so it did not sound like a speed reader.
It’s better than it seems at first.
