and Nick Pappas in Newport Beach, CA

Joseph Taricani is the author of PALI and CHRONOS, technology thrillers that explore the collision between artificial intelligence, government, power, and human identity in an era of accelerating change.

Although CHRONOS continues the world introduced in PALI, it is written as a complete standalone novel. Readers can enter the story here and fully understand the characters, the stakes, and the unfolding conflict without having read the first book.

Drawing inspiration from his work across technology, intelligence, government, and global systems, his work blends inventive concepts with contemporary geopolitical realities to examine how civilization may respond when innovation begins to outpace institutional control.

His interest in innovation and invention spans multiple industries, including technology, financial services, consumer products, and government. He holds four U.S. patents, served as a policy expert to Congress, and developed dozens of skills for Amazon. His background also includes formal training and certification in project management, Six Sigma, and Lean methodologies.

He led a team at a Fortune 50 company that pioneered a novel approach to analyzing millions of data files, focusing on patterns rather than isolated data elements. That work evolved into one of the first artificial intelligence systems used in financial services, helping reshape the industry while also improving government efficiency.

A resident of Newport Beach, California, Taricani spends much of his research time writing, studying emerging technologies, observing current events, and exploring the changing relationship between society and artificial intelligence. His stories often focus not only on the capabilities of advanced systems, but on the emotional, philosophical, and societal consequences they create.

CHRONOS is the second installment in a larger, four-part, multi-book narrative that began with PALI. Stay tuned for the third installment, SOPHIA, which is the Greek word for wisdom, and the fourth, and final, KOSMOS, which is the Greek word for world.

The adventure continues.
