Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Every life begins with a finite number of breaths.No one knows how many they are given-only that one day, they will run out.Dr. Elara Quinn is a leading scientist when she helps uncover a truth long dismissed as myth: breath itself is the true measure of life. Not age. Not illness. Breath.When this discovery leads to the creation of a machine capable of transferring breath from one person to another, the world is changed overnight.Lives are extended.Death is delayed.And breath becomes the most valuable currency humanity has ever known.As cities reorganize around this new economy of survival, Elara begins to see the cost of what she has helped create. A system meant to save lives begins to decide which lives matter more. Exhaustion spreads. Inequality deepens. And somewhere beneath the flawless logic of redistribution, something deeply human is being suffocated.Haunted by personal loss and driven by growing unease, Elara is forced to confront a question no one else dares to ask: If life can be measured, traded, and controlled-who gets to decide how it is spent Breathless: The Currency of Life is a haunting, thought-provoking work of speculative fiction exploring power, grief, and survival in a world where even the air you breathe no longer belongs to you.Perfect for readers of literary science fiction, dystopian futures, and morally complex storytelling. …

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - While the world learned to trade breath, someone else was learning what it cost.Breathless: Part II - The First Breath Taken is a parallel novel set in the world of Breathless, following Mara - a nurse who begins to see what the system hides: delayed collapse, stolen recovery, and lives spent quietly for efficiency.As breath becomes currency and survival becomes optimized, Mara helps people endure from the inside. This is the unseen story of how resistance began - not as rebellion, but as survival.This novel fills in the gaps, deepens the world, and reframes everything that comes after. …

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Some lives change with noise. Others change so quietly you only recognize it when the world begins to feel shared.Peter has built a life defined by solitude - steady days shaped by writing, long walks through familiar woods, and the loyal companionship of his dogs. Grief has softened over time, settling into something he has learned to carry rather than escape.Then Marie arrives.Seeking distance from the urgency of hospital corridors and the life she once measured in constant demands, she comes to this quieter landscape unsure of what she is meant to find - only certain that she cannot return to who she was.What begins as chance meetings along a wooded trail slowly unfolds into something neither of them tries to name too quickly.There is no rushing here.No grand declarations.Only the gradual, unmistakable recognition of two lives learning how to make room for one another.Together, they discover that strength is not found in endurance alone. but in allowing yourself to be known.That love does not always arrive as a spark -sometimes it grows steadily, in shared mornings, quiet conversations, and the simple promise of presence.Tender, reflective, and deeply human, Where We Finally Belong is a novel about second chances, emotional healing, and the rare courage it takes to build a life that feels truly your own.Perfect for readers who cherish character-driven fiction and stories that linger long after the final page, this is a reminder that belonging is not always a place.Sometimes, it is a person.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Breath is no longer a gift. It's infrastructure.The system Elara Quinn created was meant to save lives.Instead, it reshaped the world.The Breath Essence Extractor-once a desperate solution to tragedy-has become the backbone of civilization. Lifespans are extended. Death is predictable. Stability is engineered.But balance has a cost.As breath is redistributed across cities, something unseen begins to fracture. Exhaustion spreads where it shouldn't. Recoveries don't hold. Lives lengthen for some-and shorten for others.And someone is watching.From hospital corridors and forgotten systems, a quiet resistance gathers. They see the gaps. They track the losses. They understand what the data refuses to say.Breath is being taken.Not saved.As Elara pushes the limits of what her invention can do, she must confront a question more dangerous than death itself: Who decides how long a life is worth In the explosive third installment of the Breathless trilogy, loyalty fractures, systems turn predatory, and the cost of control becomes impossible to ignore.Because once breath becomes currency.Someone will always decide who gets to spend it. Book Three of the Breathless Trilogy.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Before every breath had a price, one life taught Elara Vey how much breathing could cost.On her first day at the Meridian Institute of Biomedical Sciences, Elara expects difficult classes, impossible deadlines and a room she can quietly disappear into.She does not expect Isla Quinn.Brilliant, irreverent and living with a severe inherited lung condition, Isla refuses to let illness define what remains of her life. Their unlikely friendship soon draws Elara towards Damien Quinn-Isla's fiercely protective brother-and towards a problem medicine has never been able to solve.When Isla's condition begins to deteriorate, Elara develops an experimental breathing-support system designed to recognise the body's need for air before the patient must fight for it.It works.Until it doesn't.As hope gives way to desperation, Elara and Damien must decide how far they are willing to go-and what they are prepared to risk-for one more breath.Breathless: Borrowed Air is the official graphic prequel to the Breathless trilogy: a story of friendship, ambition and loss that reveals the tragedy behind Elara's lifelong pursuit-and the first quiet divide between two people who would one day change the value of human life.…
