Produktbeschreibung
What if immortality was humanity's greatest mistake? In the gleaming towers of Zubai, humanity has achieved the impossible-eternal life through advanced nanotechnology. Death is obsolete. Aging is optional. Paradise has been built on Earth. Detective Deckard Rey has been serving the Ministry of Longevity for many years, hunting down those who dare violate the population control laws that keep this perfect world in balance. After nineteen "resets" that preserve his body at age 35, he's forgotten what it feels like to truly be alive. Until he meets Sara-a woman hiding in ancient ruins with her three-year-old daughter Nova, born outside the system's control. In a world where natural birth is forbidden and children are manufactured in labs, this little girl represents something the immortal civilization thought extinct: hope. Deckard faces an impossible choice. Uphold the system that gave him eternity, or protect a child who reminds him what it means to be human. From the first page, you'll be immersed in: A dystopian world so believable it feels like tomorrow's headlines Heart-wrenching relationships that explore what family truly means Philosophical depth wrapped in pulse-pounding action Characters so real you'll carry them with you forever A love story between a man and the daughter he never knew he needed This isn't just science fiction-it's a profound meditation on mortality, meaning, and the price of perfection. In a society that has conquered death, one man must learn what it truly means to live. Perfect for fans of: The Road, Never Let Me Go, Brave New World, The Time Machine Warning: This book will make you question everything you think you know about life, death, and what makes us human. You may find yourself looking at your own mortality-and your loved ones-in an entirely new light. Some stories entertain. Some stories enlighten. This one will transform you.
Autorenporträt
David C. Sterling writes stories that pull readers into worlds where reality blurs with imagination. His books are rich in cinematic scenes, deep emotions, and questions that linger long after the final page. A life shaped by journeys across continents, work in high-discipline fields, and a love story born in Ethiopia gives his writing an authenticity that resonates. Fluent in several languages, David weaves vivid imagery with philosophical depth, creating books that are both gripping and thought-provoking. Whether set in the shadows of a dystopian future or the heart of a timeless human drama, his stories invite readers to explore not only new worlds, but new sides of themselves.
