Voice of One: A Twilight Imperium Novel

by Tristan Palmgren

Overview

Torn between two masters, a former cyborg fights for her freedom, in this enthralling space opera set in the vast universe of Twilight Imperium

Sil is full of memories that aren't hers. Forced into servitude by the conquering powers of the L1Z1X Mindnet and given cybernetic upgrades to condition her, Sil becomes a cog in a superconscious machine bent on galactic conquest. That is, until her ship crash lands during a planetary exploration expedition and her body gives out, leaving her mind preserved for harvesting.

When she's discovered by a mutated fungus from the Arborec, a collective consciousness who resurrect the dead to serve as envoys, Sil is suddenly caught between two very different worlds, and two very different masters. The Mindnet want her brain, the Arborec want her body, and it's only a matter of time before one wins. But Sil is developing a mind of her own, and freedom has never looked sweeter... no matter the cost.
