Pity: Catgut Series

by Saul Falconer

Overview

In the not too distant future, human beings live well beyond one-hundred years, but their fragile bones and skin need special care. Technology adapts, creating care facilities staffed by cybernetics, humanoid forms that mimic human carers. The demand for human qualities in the carers drives upgrade after upgrade, as the cybernetics strive to be more human; with inevitable consequences. PITY is the second novella in the CATGUT series, six suspense filled novellas with a twist in the tail, examining the future of medicine in an age where technology advances faster than our ability to understand its consequences.
