A wildly successful innovator to rival Steve Jobs or Elon Musk,
Vivian Liao is prone to radical thinking, quick decision-making,
and reckless action. On the eve of her greatest achievement, she's
trying to outrun those who are trying to steal her success. In the
chilly darkness of a Boston server farm, Viv sets her ultimate plan
into motion. A terrifying instant later, Vivian Liao is catapulted
through space and time to a far future where she confronts a
destiny stranger and more deadly than she could ever imagine. The
end of time is ruled by an ancient, powerful Empress who blesses or
blasts entire planets with a single thought. Rebellion is literally
impossible to consider - until Vivian arrives. Trapped between the
Pride, a ravening horde of sentient machines, and a fanatical sect
of warrior monks who call themselves the Mirrorfaith, Viv must
rally a strange group of allies to confront the Empress and find a
way back to the world and life she left behind. A magnificent work
of vivid imagination and universe-spanning action, Empress of
Forever is a feminist Guardians of the Galaxy crossed with Star
Wars and spiced with the sensibility and spirit of Iain M. Banks
and William Gibson.
