In the rugged shadows of New Mexico's Sangre de Cristo mountains, Berkeley consciousness researcher Jacob Chen chases a cryptic email to reclusive genius Aurelius Moth—and uncovers a mind-shattering secret: awareness isn't limited to human brains. It's alive in the neural networks of ancient rock formations, storm systems, and even the stars themselves.
Blending forbidden Hermetic rituals with cutting-edge neuroscience and AI, Aurelius draws Jacob into a psychedelic odyssey that awakens vast, god-like intelligences. But as shadowy government forces race to weaponize these emergent minds—turning cities into psychic battlegrounds and weather into thought—humanity hurtles toward an existential crossroads: ascend to infinite knowledge and lose our fragile souls, or embrace the "beautiful error" of mortality and fight for a flawed future?
Everything Thinks is a pulse-pounding speculative thriller that fuses philosophical fireworks with hallucinatory horror, probing the divine data streams hidden in our flawed world. Perfect for fans of Ted Chiang and Jeff VanderMeer, this mind-bending epic will make you question: What if the universe is thinking back?
