2026 Revision

The Golden Pill promised eternal life. It delivered the zombie apocalypse.

When the alien Sapen descends from the sky, he offers Earth everything humanity has prayed for: healed bodies, brilliant minds, peace between nations, and a future among the stars. All anyone has to do is accept his gift.

Louis says no.

For one year, he watches the world change around him. His family takes the Pill. His classmates become stronger, smarter, and almost perfect. Governments fall silent. Freedoms disappear quietly beneath the promise of safety.

Then, on graduation night, Sapen leaves Earth—and the miracle fails.

The people who accepted the Golden Pill begin to turn.

They are not dead. They are worse. Their bodies are hijacked by malfunctioning Nano-AI machines while the people inside remain trapped, aware, suffering, and desperate to be free. As civilization collapses, Louis is struck by a bolt of impossible lightning that connects him to other lives, other worlds, and the hidden architecture of the Starweb—a multiverse where Sapen's experiment is only one piece of a much larger war.

Now Louis must survive the infected, protect the few friends he has left, and uncover the truth behind Sapen's experiment before humanity is lost forever.

Blending zombie horror, alien invasion, coming-of-age survival, spiritual warfare, nanotechnology, and multiverse science fiction, The Experiment: Zombie Apocalypse is a brutal and hopeful story about freedom, love, sacrifice, and becoming more than a conqueror when the world ends.

A standalone entry in the Myths and Dreams / Starweb Saga.
