Description

She outlived everyone. Pilfered a pod and blasted out of the atmosphere. Destination: Anywhere But Here. She escaped.

Almost.

Now in the grasp of a cruel tyrant named Thassos, stranded on a desolate icy planet, Phaedra still can't succumb to her fate. Even when the Soul Reapers have strapped her to the operating table, about to harvest her soul and transplant it into a Biomech to see if she retains her memories. If she does, Thassos will have succeeded in his task of attaining immortality by transplanting his soul indefinitely into Biomechs. After thousands of failed experiments, Phaedra is the last hope of helping a mad scientist become a rare Memory Retainer.

Will she lose her humanity during the transplant, or will she wake up a human, trapped in a synthetic body?

Join Phaedra and a ragtag crew of other scrappy survivors in this action-packed novelette, which also includes three bonus sci-fi stories, previously only available in literary magazines and anthologies.
