The Founders Gifts: The Symbiotic Sword

 

 Cybernetic nanite technology from an ancient sword has infected him. Now this young man, Dalt, hears and sees the images of people from an earlier time. These are not mere recordings of the founders of his world but virtual humans stored in a nanite matrix now interfaced to his brain. These founders tell him the truth of his world, an uncomfortable truth. From the viewpoint of those founders, his world is a backwards place. It's a place where using unapproved technology means punishment by the anti-technology Purist who run his world. Can technology help his people have a better life and really improve his world, or will its storehouse of information corrupt and pollute it? The inner dialog of this young man with the very ones who changed the world provides him answers for his future, but at the same time, he discovers disturbing questions about the past.

 He realizes he must search for the wisdom he needs to find the answers. Then he meets someone who has beauty, power and privilege, yet secrets of her own. What will he do when she discovers his secret?

...I enjoyed this book. The characters were strong, the dialogue was good, and the story progressed nicely. I've never read a story quite like this one before and I liked it.

The Founders Gifts: Book Two

 

 Dresinia’s civil war is over and Princess Adriana’s coronation is imminent. Yet she and Dalt continue to face the founder's legacy of conflict and suffering. Despite having the help of the amazing technology of The Founders Gifts, the struggle continues! Dalt finds himself once again locked into a battle against the remnants of the pseudo-religious Purists whose fiendish plans include extorting and terrorizing the innocent townsfolk of his hometown with more of their mutated Jaguarundi.

The story is quite engaging, the technology is explained in a way that average technology enthusiasts would appreciate, and the ending leaves you wanting more. It's one of the better sci-fi novels I have read. Definitely worth the purchase.

The characters are engaging and brought to life in such a way that you really can feel their emotions, pain, and sense of wonder. The content is really reflective and insightful in the way it approaches the lifestyle and behaviors that many of us act out in our daily lives, and in that way, it provides a somber opportunity for us to do a bit of introspection
