Archipelago of Kings

About this book

Adam is a prisoner in a world designed to hide its own truth, governed by a system that cannot be questioned and restrained by chains that are not always visible. Archipelago of Kings follows his effort to understand the structure enclosing him and to test whether individual will can alter the fate of an entire society. Mamdouh Emad combines science fiction, mystery, and philosophical inquiry to examine power, enslavement, silence, and the human desire for freedom. As Adam presses against the limits of what he has been allowed to know, escape becomes inseparable from the more difficult task of seeing clearly.
