Null Entity (The Volatile Memory Duology #2) by Seth Haddon
Publish date: 21 July 2026
Genre: adult scifi novella sequel
Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐💫
With her identity erased from the Corporate Federation, Wylla is a ghost in the machine: untraceable, unpredictable, and fueled by vengeance. She fights alongside Sable, the digital consciousness she loves in ways no system could ever define. Together, they’ve built a reputation for tearing through VisorForge’s carefully constructed lies.
But notoriety has a cost.
When one of their attacks draws the attention of the Edenic Order—a clandestine eco-resistance whose insurgents bloom with Old Earth flora—Wylla and Sable are offered something more than revenge: a chance to dismantle VisorForge from the roots up.
As they fall deeper into the Order’s radical vision, tensions rise. Wylla: aching to change the world yet seduced by thoughts of a quiet life, free of bloodshed. Sable: pushed to her moral limits when what she’s wanted since death is at her fingertips.
To survive, they’ll need to embrace what makes them dangerous: two minds, one body, and a shared resolve to bring down a corporatized dystopia—no matter the cost.
Review:
Thank you to NetGalley for an ARC!
I found the first book, Volatile Memory, to be a solid read, with a unique concept and thrilling plot.
Null Entity takes everything up a notch, with faster pacing and non-stop action, while further exploring the concepts introduced in Volatile Memory.
Wylla and Sable's relationship is tested, as their conflicting wants put them at odds with each other. It's never been clearer how different they are from each other, as Sable hungers for revenge at any cost, while Wylla tries to seek the most peaceful options. We also find out more about Lyrebird, how Sable ended up in the mask, and the origins and purpose of Lyrebird.
The action-sequences are paced really well, with each scene full of tension and enough space between to let the plot develop. The ending was very satisfying; everything leading up to the climax made the resolution feel hard won and rewarding.
Not gonna lie, some (most) of the scifi and tech explanations went completely over my head. I've never had a mind for that kind of stuff, so I can't judge how well the author did at explaining it, but I understood the story well-enough regardless.

another batch of quick figure studies from null entity’s stock from a few days ago!
i’ve been trying to find the Optimal Brush Setting (tm) for my lineart but it’s been a struggle. the one brush i used to use almost exclusively in PS isn’t a thing for clip studio and finding a good replacement has been annoying.
