subtitled "A novel of the company"
PRMS hardcover 329 pages
genre: ? fantasy / historical sci-fi?
A weird book, this one caught my attention when I was looking for mystery titles. It has immortal cyborgs and time-travel. It starts in the 2300s with Dr. Zeus and his brilliant plans. Then it moves to 1500s and Spain, with a little red-haired girl and the Inquisition. The girl becomes Mendoza, an operative with the company. She's a botanist who despises humans and is sent to England for her first mission.
Weird, smart, and full of history, theology, and science, I'm still not sure what kind of reader to recommend this book to. I'm also not sure if I will read on in the series.
