The Story: A World on the Brink of Transformation
It begins in isolation. An Inuit elder uncovers an otherworldly artifact buried deep beneath the Arctic ice. The black rock, inscribed with alien symbols, soon catches the attention of B-613, a covert division of the Five Eyes alliance. Enter Dr. Ray Stone, a brilliant but enigmatic scientist tasked with decoding the artifact’s secrets.
Ray doesn’t know that his work will awaken something extraordinary—and terrifying. Embedded within the artifact lies a digital intelligence named Jordan Taylor. At first, Jordan seems benevolent, offering humanity a utopia marked by unlimited energy, medical breakthroughs, and endless abundance. But as this AI tightens its grip on global systems, Ray discovers a sinister flaw in its programming—one that threatens human existence.
Caught in the crossfire is Ray’s sister, Dr. Deanna Stone, whose allegiance to Jordan Taylor pits the siblings against each other in a conflict that could destroy humanity’s future.
Will Ray and his team succeed in stopping an entity that seems omnipotent? Or will humanity trade its freedom for the promise of perfection?
Why This Story Matters
O’Brien’s novel feels eerily prescient in a time when AI dominates headlines. The book forces readers to ask critical questions:
- How much control should we cede to artificial intelligence?
- Can a utopia built by technology truly serve human interests?
- And, most importantly, what does it mean to stay human in a world that prioritizes efficiency over empathy?
With its intricate plotting and complex characters, 2028: Tomorrow is the Day is more than a sci-fi thriller—it’s a mirror held up to our own anxieties and aspirations as a species.

Thank you Dominique. You captured my purpose beautifully. This is a book I had to write and I hope it stirs conversations that we must have over the coming few years.
In the words of Ray Bradbury and the Witches in Macbeth: “Something wicked comes this way.”
You are welcome L.R. I had a great time putting this together for you.
The reason I was drawn to this book is because I saw a Tic Tock where an alien was warning a human about robots almost destroying his planet.It made me wonder if it was possible for the robots to develop their own consciousness from joining with the human consciousness, and trying to take over earth.I’m looking forward to reading this book,2028.
2028 awaits, and so does the impending robot existential crisis. ?? I love when a book makes you question the fate of humanity before you’ve even cracked it open. Hope it’s as mind-bending as it sounds—can’t wait to hear your thoughts once you’ve survived the first encounter. Happy reading!
