A multi-layered, 21st century take on the classic tropes of space opera by a bold new voice in British science fiction
Die Inhaltsangabe kann sich auf eine andere Ausgabe dieses Titels beziehen.
Michael Cobley was born in the city of Leicester, has lived in Perth (Australia) and Glasgow but now resides in North Ayrshire. His previous works have included the Shadowkings trilogy (a dark and grim fantasy epic), Iron Mosaic (a collection of short stories) but he is best known for his epic space opera series - Humanity's Fire. Splintered Suns is a stand alone adventure set in this universe.
War erupts in the depths of space.
The peaceful human colony of Darien has become the centre of an ancient conflict. On one side lies the Construct AI and its millennia long mission to protect sentient species. On the other awaits an army of twisted machine intelligences - imprisoned beneath Darien long ago and set to rise to the surface to destroy all organic life in the universe.
Enemies circle above Darien and the machines rise from below as a terrible battle is about to recommence. Machine vs. human. Life - or the sterile dusts of space.
