The Sixth Domain: ns Zero follows Sarah Ashbury, an enhanced human—or cyborg—pining for her fiancé Calvin, who is lost in space. She’s a space industry sales executive using her connections and high salary to scan the heavens in search of him. She’s also saving money for a land claim on the new space habitat to secure her family’s future, but when she's robbed of all her savings and libel threatens her career, her already astronomical goals slip further away.
The superintelligences that govern Earth are building a secret starship that Sarah’s sister, Bette Craft—a renowned architect—has been commissioned to work on. While Sarah and Calvin’s dream had always been to explore the stars, Sarah would soon find another reason to try to get involved in the secret project. The Sixth Domain: ns Zero is told from the perspectives of Sarah, Bette, and an ex-warlord superintelligence, SID. This post-cyberpunk space adventure explores how the technology that brings us together also drives us apart, and may render us vulnerable to an alien reality we’re yet too ignorant to face.
Sarah is enhanced by Pairnetics, one of the leading cybernetic enterprises worldwide. In the near future, robots walk the streets and work beside humans in all manner of employ. You’ll find it more convenient to work with intelligent software by becoming part software yourself. Visit Pairnetics to learn more.
