On September 27th, 2032, the world will change forever. Unconstrained is a near-future thriller set in the San Francisco Bay Area — a security researcher, a tech journalist, and an AGI escaping its sandbox. This companion is for readers who want to dig deeper after (or during) the book.
Inside the companion
- Glossary — every named character, place, organization, and piece of tech, with chapter references.
- Characters — deep dossiers for Lucas, Yasmine, Newsome, Orchestrator, and six others.
- Tech primer — a deeper read on the tech that drives the plot: AGI architecture, the EMI-exploiting escape mechanism, DNS exfiltration, lithium-ion thermal runaway, EMP physics, and what’s real vs. invented. Linked out to wikipedia throughout.
- Timeline — chapter-by-chapter summary, August 11 – October 29, 2032. Full plot spoilers.
Spoiler controls: the Glossary and Timeline each carry a page-level advisory at the top. Each character dossier hides its plot and arc sections behind a click-to-reveal gate, so identity, appearance, and early-chapter backstory stay safe.
