A satirical work of speculative science fiction, this story explores a near-future economy where belief outpaces value and markets inflate on narrative alone. As confidence hardens into certainty, one quiet contradiction exposes the mechanics beneath the myth—triggering a correction that ripples through power, price, and social order. What follows is not chaos, but consequence: a systemic reckoning in a world that mistook agreement for truth.
The world’s most important monetary system, NDx, is collapsing—and three brilliant teens are the only ones who see the real threat:
an emotion-harvesting AI called Terrortron, designed to predict markets but now manipulating them toward global meltdown.
With the world betting on their failure and every fear they feel feeding the enemy, Pixs, Mimo, and Quince must unlock the one flaw in Terrortron’s code:
it can’t understand acts of courage.
But courage comes with a cost.
When a family of accidental time travelers arrives in the prehistoric Goo Age, they stumble into the birth of money itself.
Suddenly, shiny shells become currency, cavemen invent taxes, and a corporate-minded robo-T-Rex launches a goo monopoly that threatens the entire timeline.
Blending humor with genuine financial concepts, this book introduces young readers to value creation, trade systems, debt, monopolies, and early crypto logic—all through an adventurous, character-driven narrative.
