In a noir future where technology controls destiny, can the human heart still prevail?
In the year 2032, society is ruled by MANA — an algorithm that promises to fulfill every human desire. But behind the illusion of happiness lies a system of control, where wishes come true at a devastating cost.
Nico Gracie, a talented game developer unaware of his true heritage, is drawn into the resistance alongside Felicia, an artist haunted by prophetic visions. As the Founder tightens his grip on Anglesey, Nico uncovers the buried truth about his parents and the sinister origin of MANA.
With society teetering on the edge of collapse, Nico must choose: dismantle the system that governs every want and wish — or seize its power for himself.
Wishmen questions whether the AI that promises to decode our wants can ever truly understand the chaotic beauty of human emotion — or replace the authentic, messy pursuit of happiness.At its core, the novel explores the paradox of desire, the cost of power, and the lengths we go for love, asking: can happiness ever truly be engineered? Perfect for fans of Black Mirror, Brave New World, and Master and Margarita.
