Art was a man of gray routines until a mysterious death pulled him into a realm where reality is dictated by the power of the BOOK. Here, your worth is defined by your status, and your potential is sealed by the BOOK that claims you. But when Art arrives, he is rejected by the system. Labeled with a rank of None and possessing an anomaly known only as I/O, he becomes a glitch in a world overrun by vengeful spirits, mindless zombies, and demons that hunger for the living. As he uncovers the truth of his own existence, he realizes that in a land where history is curated and forbidden knowledge is erased, the monsters are the least of his problems.
