Eftos-Epos Bio (v1) EN
Due to bankruptcy of the genre Eftos started 2009 to write his own sci-fi saga.
Unlike the competition, Eftos intentionally uses no voodoo like time machines, beings of light or other rubbish.
These facts led to the original creation of the
Tunnel Sci-Fi Trilogy (Eftos-Epos) Kingdom of a thousand
This trilogy is a science-fiction saga consisting of the following original books:
(I) Kingdom of a thousand
(II) Halfworld
(III) The last crisis
It tells the adventures of three friends: Prince Henley to Westerburg, Patchara Petch-a-boon and Svinenysh Galactic.
The story takes place 213, 216 & 219 NET mediantime in the Kingdom of a thousand.
Each book consists of the adventures of the children, embedded in a futuristic sci-fi world of old.
That is the reason why each book comes as youth- and adultedition.
Certain sci-fi details are mentioned only in the books of man.

Objectives & Core Themes
The narrative follows three young protagonists—Henley, Patchara, and Svinenysh—as they uncover a dangerous conspiracy involving machine intelligence and political corruption within the Raah-Indi star systems. The central research question explores the fragility of existence in a universe governed by artificial intelligence, historical legacy, and the pursuit of power, forcing the protagonists to question the validity of their reality as they attempt to dismantle a secret weapons factory.
- Technological singularity and the emergence of "technical autism" in artificial minds.
- Political power dynamics within the "Kingdom of a Thousand" parliamentary monarchy.
- Interstellar logistics, quantum transport, and the manipulation of spacetime via accelerators.
- The clash between human agency and programmed, deterministic machine logic.
Excerpt from the Book
(II) Technical Autism
Machine City is a self-sufficient complex along the same day / night of our innermost planet. Several kilometers long and on average a hundred yards wide plant is operated by discarded second-hand robots of various classes. It also houses the main prison of the Machine City Raah entire system: the high-security wing Suspect Zero, the vernacular, however, only grave-called Vex.
The used machines are dedicated, as they say, that is, they take only one pre-programmed task. There are guards, supply bots correct the mechanical failure of your colleagues, recyclers and new arrivals.
For the smooth running of one of us, Regent provides the Vex, chief organizational operator. This COOs are either military or aspiring young managers who expect a short-term career boost. But the love credits play a role.
For several years, is responsible for managing Nef Silva, a classic drop outs. It actually looks like this as if he likes to do the job.
Summary of Chapters
(I) Causal: Introduces the philosophical and physical paradoxes of the universe, setting the stage for the narrative's central themes of "the central word" and cosmic entropy.
(II) Technical Autism: Details the operations of "Machine City" on the planet Vex and the challenges posed by artificial intelligences that experience logic-based depression.
(III) Tunnel: Explores the history and physics behind the "Tunnel" technology used for near-instantaneous travel between distant solar systems.
(IV) Kingdom of a Thousand: Outlines the political structure of the Raah system, managed by an elite council of heirs descended from the ancient Westarp family.
(V) Ancient, cold: Portrays the uneasy alliance between Queen Hypatia I and the military leadership, highlighting rising tensions regarding border security.
(VI) on one line: Documents the initiation of the "New Order" project by General Rebelkov and his preparations for a secret presentation.

What is the central objective of the protagonists?
Their primary goal is to uncover the truth behind the "City Machine II" factory and prevent a disastrous military conspiracy that threatens the peace between the systems.
Which scientific concepts are featured?

What is the function of the Vex high-security wing?
Vex serves as the primary prison for the Machine City system, housing entities deemed dangerous or malfunctioning by the ruling powers.
What distinguishes the Ruba species in the text?
The Ruba are depicted as a simple, industrious species often exploited as labor, whose cultural expressions—specifically their music and dance—stand in stark contrast to the rigid, cold logic of human and machine authorities.
What role does Exa-Nano play in the narrative?
