Description
In 1986 a near-sighted astronomer disappears, leaving his crippled wife alone. Their secret military weapons experiment has major consequences for humanity and for aliens in the far future. In 2687 two women - a singing admiral and a renowned physician - because they forgot someone they now remember, steal a Navy starship and risk a second collapse of human civilization.
In 2687 the Age of Exploration is long ago and the Navy now keeps - and dictates - the peace. Beyond the frontier of the Union, and even within its edges, ships disappear, and the Navy does nothing. In the three centers of human civilization - Earth System, Essia, and Rhyandh - people can buy an inexpensive form of rejuvenation described as continuity, in which they will lose some amount of their memories. One of the most common crimes is mind-rape, in which memories are stolen to be "dreamed" for entertainment through a neural interface. Except for such crimes and catastrophes as have always occurred among humans, life is peaceful in the Union.
Beyond the Union and unknown to the Union, much of the rest of the galaxy is a wilderness filled with millions of small human settlements and one very large space habitat called Oz. Humans live in Oz. They die in Oz. They crew a vast fleet of advanced spacecraft that raid the galaxy. They do not live long lives. They would gladly lay waste to the Union if something murderous and superbly terrifying did not deter them.
The memories of a man from the 20th Century will tip the balance of terror.
Far Freedom is space opera, not because it wants to be but because it-just-is. You may never have read any science fiction like it - which, if true, doesn't mean it's good. It doesn't intend to be pretentious. The reader is always the ultimate judge. As a musical metaphor, the story is variation on a theme presented by an earlier composer. The style of writing favors dialogue over narration. Most of the action takes place in 2687 but the plot begins in the late 20th Century. It's long, complicated, and has many characters. You should make notes.
Far Freedom is also available as three separate books: Keshona: Far Freedom Part 1, Cryptikon: Far Freedom Part 2, and The Lady: Far Freedom Part 3.
