SIGNED FIRST EDITION OF ONLY 900 PRODUCED


Easton Press. Norwalk, CT. 2006. "Alpha" by Catherine Asaro. Signed First Edition. Signed First Limited Edition of only 900 copies. Bound in full genuine leather. Includes Certificate of Authenticity. Frontispiece by Heidi Taillefer.


About the book

The creator of a proscribed network of rogue AIs and androids has been destroyed, his multiple copies deleted. Except for one. Alpha: a female android who seems to possess a conscience - so much so that her execution is delayed. Big mistake. Now on the run, and with her former captor as hostage, Alpha moves to activate a long dormant master-plan, a plan that may well include the end of humanity and the violent transformation of the world as we know it!


With this sharp, edgy thriller, a continuation of Catherine Asaro's near-future series, we find General Thomas Wharington torn between destroying or saving the beautiful Android Alpha. Is she becoming human or merely pretending to do so in order to carry on the evil plans of her deceased creator, Charon, whom Wharington destroyed?
