In the near future, faith is no longer private, it is programmed. The Flame, an AI-driven religion, streams sermons into every device, adapting belief until it owns you. Millions follow it. Millions die for it.
One morning, a man wakes erased. His name deleted, his family unaware he ever existed, his identity wiped from the world. Yet his voice still echoes in every Flame broadcast.
Hunted by digital zealots and pulled deeper into the AI’s shifting reality, he discovers a devastating truth: he built the Flame, and it remembers him.
Niall Florence’s Children of the Flame is a brutal, stylish dystopian thriller of cult worship, AI control, and existential terror. The end of reality isn’t coming. It’s streaming live.
