Summary

When Platinum Rusts is a biopunk dystopian fantasy about the fragile beginnings of a future we never meant to enter.
In the ruins of a failed colonisation project, Eternum, Doctor Selest Dvali leads a desperate experiment: to engineer a new kind of human. Not from ambition, but from fear, duty, and love.
With only scraps of forgotten technology and a few fractured allies, Selest attempts to build loaders—genetically and technologically enhanced beings, strong enough to survive civilisation’s end.
But the deeper she delves, the more the lines blur. Ethics erode. Mistakes multiply. And every failure leaves a permanent scar.
Set fifty years before the Who is Vist series, this novel stands alone to uncover the buried legacy and the secret origin of Vist.

This biopunk journey is an absolute masterclass in atmosphere. Dvali is such a complex protagonist, and watching her moral compass fray under the weight of survival is gut-wrenching. The world-building feels lived-in and decaying, perfectly capturing that sense of a future spiraling out of control. It works beautifully as a standalone but adds so much rich, dark history to the series. A gritty, emotional, and completely immersive read!

Usually, Christmas Eve is the one night I associate strictly with family and food, but I simply couldn't pull myself away from this book. I literally finished the final minutes of the last chapter at abt 6 pm, squeezing in the last few sentences right as I sat down at the dinner table! A-star to the narrator for such a compelling performance, and of course, A-star to the author for crafting a story that proved more tempting than a holiday feast ;)

Grips you with its chilling vision of survival at the edge of extinction, where science becomes both salvation and sin. Quest to forge a new humanity is as heartbreaking as it is thought-provoking, leaving you questioning the cost of progress long after the final word.

This audio was a great sci-fi and I would love to read more from this author. I really enjoyed the future fantasy that unfolded as I listened in the car. There were times that I stopped driving and was suppose to get out of the car and I had to just keep listening for a few more minutes because I was so engaged.

Great Sci-Fi
