Ebooks en oferta: iD y vN, de Madeline Ashby

Hoy Angry Robot nos ofrece en oferta dos ebooks de Madeline Ashby: iD y vN. Se pueden adquirir en la tienda de la editorial (usando el cupón "tinsel") por una libra esterlina (unos 1,20€) cada uno,  en formato digital sin DRM. El año pasado vN fue una de mis novelas favoritas y, además, tuve la suerte de entrevistar a la autora. Esta es una muy buena oportunidad para conocer su obra si aún no lo habéis hecho.

Éstas son las sinopsis de las novelas:

vN (Book I of The Machine Dinasty)

Amy Peterson is a von Neumann machine, a self-replicating humanoid robot. 

For the past five years, she has been grown slowly as part of a mixed organic/synthetic family. She knows very little about her android mother’s past, so when her grandmother arrives and attacks her mother, little Amy wastes no time: she eats her alive. 

Now she carries her malfunctioning granny as a partition on her memory drive, and she’s learning impossible things about her clade’s history – like the fact that the failsafe that stops all robots from harming humans has failed… Which means that everyone wants a piece of her, some to use her as a weapon, others to destroy her.

iD (Book II of The Machine Dinasty)

Javier is a self-replicating humanoid on a journey of redemption. 

Javier’s quest takes him from Amy’s island, where his actions have devastating consequences for his friend, toward Mecha where he will find either salvation… or death.
