It's 2054, and the dystopian Earth is crumbling in chaos. Only the artificial floating island of Haven holds fast against the corruption outside its borders-or does it?Convinced that the once-noble endeavor of the island's founder David Emerson has now run amiss, an ancient resistance cell dedicated to individual freedom recruits Miles Dawson, an ambitious young 9t9 drone pilot from within the corporate state to covertly unravel the plans of the power-hungry leader. What these exact plans are, the group is uncertain at first. On his quest to uncover and destroy the threat, though, Miles finds his allegiance torn between himself, the friends he has counted on, and the Emerson Corporation that has always been a part of his life. As Earth marches toward world war, his battle against the plot, codenamed Ergo, leads him to a mysterious alien device and takes him from the corporation's island, to the former USA, and into space onboard the corporation owned exploration vessel ECS Wallace. The deeper he gets, the more Miles realizes he can't get out-and wonders if he wants to. In his inability to quit, he learns much more about his friends, himself, and his ties to the corporate leader than he could ever imagine. Full of reshaped nations, alien races, and new technologies, this first book of the Ergo series, Ergo: the Drone, provides the reader imagination and suspense through Dawson's on-going adventures while painting a vivid projection of our world in the not-too-distant future as various economic, political, and religious forces around the globe begin to collide.

The year is 2054. A ambitious and elite young man s comfortable existence is overturned when he is called on to play a critical role in stopping a growing evil. Miles Dawson, a young man immersed in a dystopian world on the brink of global conflict, wants nothing more than to be recognized and admired by his peers and fellow employees of the Emerson Corporation on their man-made island of Haven. The mighty Emerson Corporation and its island of Haven have separated themselves from the surrounding corrupt, crumbling nations of Earth and have taken humanity s space exploration to new levels, tunneling to new galaxies, battling threats from other worlds, and developing its position of power among these other races. However, storm clouds are gathering on the horizon. The unchecked growing power of the Corporation and it s President, David Emerson, leads to a dark conspiracy. Confronted with a revelation about the Corporation s designs to control humanity, Miles must decide how far he is willing to go. When recruited into a resistance movement by a life-long friend, Miles must struggle internally with his own emotions and motivations as he faces an increasing number of external challenges, which force him to decide where he stands. With the world s other societies crumbling under slavery to corrupt governments, the small resistance believes they are the only ones able to stop President Emerson from accomplishing his goal and humanity s sole hope for justice and freedom for the individual. From his unique vantage point as a citizen of Haven, Miles travels Earth and through space to piece together Emerson s conspiracy, code named Ergo, and stop Oversight, the privileged enforcers of the scheme. The young man and his allies work together to find out the secret of Oversight and to put an end to the tyranny that has begun to corrupt the once-good ideals of Haven. As he continues in the quest, though, he battles to discover whether he will learn what it is to be truly.
