Amaranthe IV: Machina (Unabridged‪)‬

When man and machine are one and the same, death is no longer an inevitability. But in the darkest reaches of space, neither is life. 

Includes all three novels (Exin Ex Machina, Of a Darker Void, and The Stars Like Gods) in the cyberpunk/space opera trilogy Asterion Noir.

Seven hundred thousand years ago, the Asterions fled persecution for their pro-synthetic beliefs. In the safe harbor of a distant galaxy, they have evolved into a true biosynthetic race and built a thriving society upon the pillars of personal autonomy, mutual respect, and boundless innovation.

Now that society is fracturing at the seams. Beneath lies built upon lies, the shocking truth as to why threatens the future of not merely the Asterions, but all life in the universe.

Cyberpunk and space opera collide in a thrilling new trilogy from the author of the epic Aurora Rhapsody space opera saga. Enter a world of technological wonders, exotic alien life, enthralling characters, captivating worlds—and a terrifying evil lurking in the void that will shatter it all. 

Asterion Noir is a new entry point for the Amaranthe series—newcomers are welcome.
