Her First Reality, Darkness
Sylvie O'Brien has made a deal with The City's most powerful Information Architect: Joseph will provide safe passage to the mainland in exchange for midwifery services for his wife.
The only problem is natural birth is a violation of the Biocratic Mandate and Sylvie is considered an enemy of the state. When she chooses to attend one final illegal birth, the fallout thrusts her into the dark fringe beyond The City's control.
Alone and unprotected, she finds herself hunted by The City's peace officers and members of her former Deme. Among those who have outlived their reproductive worth and at the mercy of decades-old vendettas and agendas, Sylvie must relentlessly back her dream of freedom and trust the help that is offered, to outlast and outlive those who wish to see her dead.
If you like gutsy heroines, reproductive near-futures and high-stakes action, then you'll love Jodi Cleghorn's provocative dystopian novella, the first in The Birthpunk Constellation series of eight interconnected novellas. **This novel is edited to British spelling and grammatical conventions.**Customer Reviews
