The Sixth Traveler

A Novel

De: Kevin M. Faulkner

Narrado por: Virtual Voice

Jenny was left disabled from an interstellar jump that was supposed to be the highlight of her career. She lost a friend, and the person she leaned on the most was fading away . . .

Before all this her life was simple. Every morning, Jenny was wakened by Britta, made coffee, uploaded to her implant, and was off to work at her firm in San Diego. Her goal was to get through her work, get to the beach, and otherwise be left alone. Her boss had other plans. Short of billable hours, Jenny took on complicated clients whose breakthrough technology would transform her life and all of humanity.

Jenny doesn’t want transformation and hates all the attention, but she knows she's in over her head. Can she trust the seemingly infinite compassion of an android, or the astronaut who gave her strength she thought she never had? Like it or not, historic events are drawing Jenny into a future for herself, the man she is calculated to love, and the new planet she reluctantly represents.

The Sixth Traveler is the twenty-second century memoir of a young woman drawn into the conflict and chaos of man’s first steps into the stars.
