THE INDEX ENGINE DOESN’T PREDICT YOUR FUTURE. IT ASSIGNS IT. Every citizen gets a number. That number decides what their life is allowed to become. Aren’s is 0.000%—a result so impossible the Index Engine should never have produced it. Then the machine screams, shatters, and his sister, Liora, is arrested for uncovering its secret connection to Pluto, the planet humanity forgot. Now numbers appear before Aren’s eyes, warning him about events that haven’t happened yet. They might help him survive the next fight. They might also be the reason the people behind the Engine want him gone. To reach Pluto and uncover the truth, Aren must cross worlds ruled by different laws of fate, face enemies far stronger than he is, and find allies willing to fight a future someone else chose for them. The Engine gave Aren a number that means he should not exist. It was never a verdict. It was a target.
