VOLTA: THE SILICON EMPERORS

Lazare Bonaparte died with regrets. A shadow engineer and former commando, he watched his country surrender its technological sovereignty to American and Asian giants. He was a soldier in a losing war. But Fate—or a glitch in the universe—hit the reset button. Lazare wakes up on October 14, 1980. He is back to square one: a cold bed in a crumbling Parisian orphanage. He is poor, underage, and nobody takes him seriously. But he remembers everything. He knows the architecture of microprocessors that won't be invented for another decade. He knows the code for the viruses that will paralyze the world. He knows the coming market crashes, the wars, and the fatal weaknesses of his future enemies. No more following orders. This time, Lazare won't just endure History. He will write it. From the muddy markets of Paris to the golden halls of the Military Academy, from illegal garage labs to the secret boardrooms of the Defense Ministry, witness the brutal ascent of a boy who decided to build an empire on sand, and turn it into silicon. He doesn't want money. He wants absolute sovereignty. Welcome to Project VOLTA.
