Technology has always promised progress. From the steam engine to the internet, humanity has evolved by merging with machines. But what happens when the line between reality and the digital world dissolves entirely?

The metaverse is no longer a fantasy. It is being built, piece by piece, offering an escape from the mundane and a future that seems limitless. But beneath its glittering façade lies a deeper question: At what point does an escape become a prison?

This book is a story of that dilemma. It is about choice, control, and the thin line between freedom and entrapment in a world crafted from code.

As you turn these pages, ask yourself: If given the chance, would you leave your world behind?
