Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Pirate and Somaplasty Specialist Gettion Solarise finds himself lost and destitute when kicked out of the illegally operating esthetics company he helped found. He struggles to reestablish himself commercially and navigate trade that is becoming increasingly "legit". Cut off from both his clientele and access to the Dark Corridor, he becomes too despondent to properly design anything, until he encounters the alien Niikka, sent to the Sphairan Territories as part of a clandestine invasion from the other side of the Corridor. As they are caught up in a storm of interplanetary espionage and nanotech-based conflict, Gettion shows Niikka that fashion is as much fun as War, and Niikka attempts to teach Gettion that politics can be bypassed by eating rivals. Along with Gettion's best friend Ulianni, they test and validate their strengths and abilities-all the while becoming more fantastic than ever. The Identity Matrix follows on the story arcs of both Kintsugi and Dark Corridor, both of which are summarised in the front of the book. "With a cast of complex and compelling characters, The Identity Matrix delivers both pulse-pounding action and a deep and important message about controlling your own destiny and defining your own identity. A great addition to Rahn's oeuvre and a must read for SF fans." Hayden Trenholm, Award-winning author of The Passion of Ivan Rodriguez. This item is printed on demand.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. When the Dark Corridor appeared, travel between human worlds and the alien planet Segestica became possible. This was a boon for merchants and a target for controlling interests. But the Corridor is not a random anomaly.

The humans Makka Starshadow, a mercenary contracted by the Tengu Corporation, and Gettion Solarise, a pirate andSomaplasty Specialist, are drawn into a conflict involving the mysterious visitor called Niikka. When Makka and Niikka cross paths, it becomes evident that both are important to the Thiir. They are forced to choose their priorities and navigate a tangled web of alien intrigue and war. Enemies or allies? Makka, Niikka, and Gettion must decide who they are and if they will fight together for their very existence.
