Summary:
"The last human in the universe is on the run from a godlike intelligence in this rip-roaring debut space opera. Sarya is the galaxy's worst nightmare: a Human. Fortunately, she's the last one. Adopted and raised by a terrifying, fiercely maternal spider-like alien, Sarya has lived on a space station her entire life, keeping her identity as a galactic boogeyman secret even as she puzzles over the impossible questions behind her own existence. How it is that she, and she alone, is the sole survivor of a race that was supposedly wiped out centuries ago? Who--or what--has set itself against humanity? And what made the humans so special--or so frightening--that they warranted such treatment? When a strange visitor recognizes Sarya as Human and makes her an irresistible offer, she's convinced she's about to get the answers she needs--until a series of vicious attacks leaves her world shattered. Suddenly she's running for her life, a step ahead of rioting inhabitants and terrifying enforcers. Together with a band of misfits and cutthroats--including a sentient spacesuit, a pint-sized alien genius named Sandy, and a borderline-immortal android--she makes for the depths of space aboard a stolen ship, in search of the truth behind her existence. What she discovers is that humanity's death was but one chess move in a war played out across light-years and centuries, by beings with minds so vast and alien that they might as well be gods. Amongst their manipulations, Sarya might--just might--see a path to giving humanity a second chance. But to walk it, she'll have to make a terrible choice...and become something greater, and more alien, than she ever imagined"--Provided by publisher.
