An AI-written novel conceived and directed by David Hawig, written with Claude and ChatGPT (GPT-6 Astra). Claude generated the original manuscript; David developed the book with ChatGPT (GPT-6 Astra), with OpenAI's Codex supporting research, revision and production; in October 2026 Claude rewrote the novel at David's direction. The cover artwork was generated with OpenAI's image generation tool, and the cover's signature mark was drawn as vector strokes with Claude; typography and publication layouts were composed separately. The book's creation note describes the process.
