Supernova Audiobook (Free)

C. A. Higgins’s acclaimed novel Lightless fused suspenseful storytelling, high-caliber technological speculation, and richly developed characters right into a amazing research fiction epic. Now the stunning Supernova heightens the thrills and deepens the haunting exploration of technology and humanity-and the consequences that await when both intersect.

Once Ananke was an experimental military spacecraft. But a rogue computer virus transformed it-her-into something a lot more: a fully sentient about Supernova artificial cleverness, with all the current power of a god-and all the unpredictable emotions of an adolescent.

Althea, the ship’s engineer and the last living human aboard, nearly provided her life to save Ananke from harmful saboteurs, forging a connection as effective as that between mom and daughter. Today she devotes herself totally to Ananke’s treatment. But teaching a considering, feeling machine-perhaps one of the most harmful pressure in the galaxy-to become human being proves a monumental challenge. When Ananke chooses to seek out Matthew Gale, the terrorist she regards as her father, Althea learns that some bonds are stronger than mortal thoughts can understand-or control.

Drawn back again toward Earth by the search, Althea and Ananke will see themselves in the heavy of the violent revolution led by Matthew’s sister, the charismatic innovator Constance, who will stop at nothing to bring down a tyrannical monitoring condition. As the currents of recent decisions and present desires enter into stark collision, a fresh and fiery potential is going to be born.
