Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every decision brings consequences. Any decent historian knows intentions matter little. Rose meant to save helpless children, a worthy goal. She knew the risks, but that didn’t stop her. Now she had to face the consequences, and so did everyone else. We’d paid a hefty price already, but the debt hadn’t yet been reimbursed. The mysterious cyborg had enough. Determined to capture Rose, he kidnaps children, offering to exchange their lives for the winged prophet’s surrender. Though Rose wishes to comply, Daniel Ricdeau, her adoptive father, and NISDA’s commander, won’t let her. In desperation, Rose tries a deadly gambit. The results are disastrous. She ends up putting not only herself in danger, but countless innocents. Daniel must now mount a rescue operation, well aware that failure implies losing both Nirnivia’s holy prophet and his daughter. In the middle of it all, James is seething with rage. Rose’s apparent betrayal left him reeling, and he doesn’t care whether she survives. At least, that’s how he feels on the surface. Deep down, he wonders if he’ll ever learn the truth behind Rose’s actions. Will the Cyborg capture Rose? Will she even survive? If so, at what cost? What will happen to James now that he can’t count on his only protector? Regardless of the answers, the cyborg’s attack will leave its mark. Book 6 of The Cyborg’s Crusade

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rose… Brucie… Janice… Mr. and Ms. Ricdeau… I’d been with them for months. I trusted, considered them friends. Now everything was in question. The cyborg’s game intensifies as he once again contacts James. This time, he proposes a riddle of sorts. According to his claims, solving it will reveal Rose and the others lied about the origins of the first human. As a human himself, this is a subject close to James’s heart. Especially given the hatred he experienced on arrival because of his specie. Though Rose offered an explanation, he always sensed she omitted something, and so he wonders if there’s any truth to the cyborg’s words. But, if so, why would his new friend lie to him? Now, James finds himself in a dangerous situation. He’s determined to solve the riddle and discover the truth. But, if Rose covered up the nature of the first human, how far would she go to keep her secret hidden? He must thread carefully less she discovers his attempt. However, the cyborg isn’t the only one playing a game. Unknown to him, Diabo, leader of the terrorist organisation BBR, is forming a plan of his own. A nefarious scheme that will finally enact his revenge and rid the world of the cyborg once and for all. Will James solve the riddle? Or will Rose discover his attempts at unveiling the truth? If so, what fate awaits him? And what of the cyborg? Will he survive the attempt on his life, or fall prey to Diabo’s rage? Book 3 of The Cyborg’s Crusade

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A cruel decision lies before Commander Daniel Ricdeau. No doubt it’s the hardest choice of his career, or rather his life. Ever since the mysterious cyborg known as Doctor Death became Ostark’s president, he remained out of reach. Most of his time he spent in secure military complexes. Even when a rare public appearance happened, intense security measures and disinformation campaigns meant the Nirnivian learned the fact too late to act. Now, however, a unique opportunity presents itself. A Nirnivian spy discovered the date of a public speech by the president. This makes assassinating him possible, though it would be a suicide mission. While ridding himself of his sworn enemy tempts Daniel, he remains reticent. An attempt on the cyborg’s life means war. The last one they waged against Ostark was a disaster for Nirnivia. They survived only through the cyborg’s apparent mercy. Nothing suggests they’d perform any better in a new conflict. And yet, can Daniel afford to wait any longer? Since Doctor Death took over Ostark, their military strength has grown exponentially. The more time passes, the greater the gap between the two countries becomes. Soon, the chances of a Nirnivian victory will go from improbable to impossible. But what if the mission fails? Then, they’d face a brutal war while the greatest tactical mind ever still led their opponent. Will Daniel go ahead with the assassination attempt? If so, will they succeed? Will the cyborg perish? In that case, what comes next? All the answers point to certain death. Book 4 of The Cyborg’s Crusade

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first three books in an epic sci-fi series! How did it come to this? My life used to be so simple. Back then, I hated it; I found it boring. Let me tell you: boring’s good. Boring’s great! I should’ve been thankful… It was supposed to be a date like any other for James Hunter, a simple convenience store clerk. Nothing more than watching a movie in the town of Moncton. A place as unknown and unimportant as he considered his own existence to be. And yet, while walking to a cinema, James teleports to another world. There, a hostile crowd surrounds him, including various mutants with strange deformities. Before he can even gather his wits or make a dash for it, a lone ally presents herself in the form of a winged woman named Rose. An important cultural figure in the country where James appeared, she offers him both protection and a home. Soon, James learns that this new world is divided by a cold war. On one side is Nirnivia, home to Rose. The other, Ostark, is led by a mysterious cyborg. James is unaware that the cyborg has him in his crosshairs, thinking of him as the Deus ex machina that will end the war in his favor. But the cyborg is far from the only potential threat to James. Soon after his arrival, BRR, a terrorist organization, kidnaps him. What would a rogue group out for revenge-seeking to turn the cold war hot want with someone like James? Is there anyone also aware of this other world who will try to find him? Or is he on his own? If so, how is he supposed to escape? If that’s even an option...

Download or read book Resilient Cyborgs written by Nelly Oudshoorn and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-04-02 with total page 359 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines how pacemakers and defibrillators participate in transforming life and death in high-tech societies. In both popular and medical accounts, these internal devices are often portrayed as almost magical technologies. Once implanted in bodies, they do not require any ‘user’ agency. In this unique and timely book, Nelly Oudshoorn argues that any discourse or policy assuming a passive role for people living with these implants silences the fact that keeping cyborg bodies alive involves their active engagement. Pacemakers and defibrillators not only act as potentially life-saving technologies, but simultaneously transform the fragility of bodies by introducing new vulnerabilities. Oudshoorn offers a fascinating examination of what it takes to become a resilient cyborg, and in the process develops a valuable new sociology of creating ‘resilient’ cyborgs.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: They say you can’t go home again, but what if it is the only way to truly be free? Rap solves problems large and small. He solved them when he was human, when he was a robot, and now that he’s mostly human again, he’s still solving problems—though eliminating the threat from his old Master is a biggie. He’ll need his pet, Snake, and his new friend, Nelson, the AI inside his head. And then there’s Ale. He thought he knew all there was to know about Ale. He was wrong. Her human form is making his head spin and his heart hurt. He’d like to get closer to her, but he was a geek who didn’t know how to talk to women before he became a robot. He can’t imagine facing the Master without her, but how can he risk her life on an impossible mission? Now that Ale is a human again—mostly—her new beating heart is pounding for Rap. It’s a pity that he’s inscrutable, and she’s got a huge secret—one that could be the key to ending the threat from their former Q’uy Master—or doom them all to captivity once more. Can the shy guy and the lovesick gal defeat their greatest enemy and find a happy ending? Only the chatty Snake knows for sure. Cyborg’s Revenge first appeared in Pets in Space ® 4 and was a side story in the Project Enterprise series. It has been repackaged into The Cyborg Chronicles series because the robots want their own series!

Book excerpt: Cyborg Lives? is a groundbreaking collection of women?s autobiographical accounts of everyday relationships with technology. The ?technobiographies? presented here describe encounters with technology ranging from CDROMS and web pages to science laboratories, ante-natal screening, nuclear power and applicances in the home. These very personal stories offer insight into lived experience where gender intersects with class, ethnicity, nationality, sexuality, generation, and subcultural identity in shaping technological encounters.Cyborg Lives? uses Donna Haraway's now well-known cyborg metaphor to examine the centrality of technology to daily life. The result is a series of fascinating life-stories that stimulate thinking about the ways that technology intersects with ordinary, everyday experieces. The volume asserts that, in the twenty-first century, technology is an intrinsic part of our subjectivity - whether we like it or not.Cyborg Lives? is written in an accessible way, while at the same time reflecting a range of sophisticated theoretical perspectives. The book will be of interest both to new students and experienced researchers, and will become an invaluable resource in the fields of women's and gender studies, auto/biography, sociology, literature, and cultural, technology and communication studies.Details: www.rawnervebooks.co.uk/cyborglives.html
