Threshold Universe
THRESHOLD UNIVERSE
In a solar system choked by 800 trillion souls, hope evaporates faster than water. Vast rings circle our sun—each a marvel of engineering two thousand miles across, each holding over a trillion lives. But as resources dwindle and basic needs become luxuries, most retreat to virtual worlds, becoming warriors and heroes in elaborate games, blind to the shackles that bind them.
They told us this was progress. They told us this was freedom.
They lied.
Welcome to the Threshold Universe, where humanity's greatest achievement may become its tomb among the stars—unless a few brave souls can expose the dark truth before it's too late.
About the Threshold Universe
Born from a fusion of hard science fiction and immersive virtual reality gaming, Denver Marshall Lane's Threshold explores humanity at its breaking point. Here, corporate ambition has transformed our solar system into a vast plantation of human labor, where twelve massive ringworlds—each an engineering marvel 2000 miles across—orbit the sun like gleaming halos of civilization.
But these monuments to human achievement cast long shadows. With basic resources growing scarce and 800 trillion souls competing for survival, many seek escape in sophisticated virtual worlds, becoming magnificent warriors and legendary heroes. Yet even these digital refuges may be another form of control, masking chains that most don't even know exist.
Through multiple interweaving storylines, Lane challenges readers to question the nature of freedom, reality, and human resilience in a future where progress itself might be our greatest deception. We witness the first cracks in humanity's gilded cage—and the birth of a revolution that will shake the solar system and our civilization to its core.
Welcome to tomorrow.
Welcome to the truth.
Welcome to Threshold.
