The story continues
The Initial Four Nation Cycle is the beginning of Behind the Feed, not its conclusion. Future novels and shorter fiction will introduce new relationships, places and perspectives, extending the literary world while continuing to explore how digital life shapes human connection.
Each new story will expand the literary world in its own direction.
