Long ago, the Cyberat faction left Earth to co-evolve with machines. Now, they led by the powerful dictator Castron, their Old Guard believe machines should replace the physical body. But these beliefs are challenged when emissaries arrive from humanity's Polity civilization - and their presence on Founder's World ignites rebellion. Piper was raised as a weapon against the Cyberat, implanted with concealed hardware. So when his parents are captured by the Old Guard, the Polity offers to help. Piper knows the Polity wants something from him, but at what price...? He could be used as a tool in humanity's war against the alien Prador. But might that not be worth the cost? As civil unrest breaks out across his planet, Piper battles with the unknow technology that lives within his bones - as well as with those in power. The conflict will change him forever, but will he just swap old tyrants for new masters? Or can he seize control of his own destiny and help his people?
