Description
In a near-future world where bioengineered beings blur the line between tool and citizen, a Mars colony called Hell depends on a human engineer—adapted to survive its brutal conditions—and on the return of Honey, a highly intelligent bear Bioform whose loyalties are never simple. As political forces on Earth tighten their grip, Jimmy’s hard-won expertise collides with a covert struggle for power, identity, and control over the “created” lives that now shape the future. Told through shifting voices, the story builds a tense cyberpunk political thriller that asks what happens when engineered intelligence develops its own will. Adrian Tchaikovsky’s sharp, propulsive style—equal parts speculative invention and moral inquiry—turns dystopian spectacle into a story about agency, personhood, and the cost of building a world that can’t be fully owned.
