Durante décadas, essa frase permeou o dia a dia de todos os habitantes da megalópole Seattle-Portland, controlada pelo regime autoritário da Delegação. A maior forma de controle, no entanto, vinha do Insight, um implante ocular que permitia acompanhar tudo o que era feito e dito pelos cidadãos, punindo os que saíam das regras e recompensando os que as seguiam. Mas isso foi há muito tempo: uma revolução tirou a Delegação do poder, libertando todos da vigilância do Insight.

Look outward beyond the stars with six stories from bestselling visionary authors. An AI awakens to its purpose. A researcher seeds a thousand new worlds for one more chance at love. A murder rocks the crew of an interstellar ship. With a sweeping sense of wonder, these stories explore the galaxy . . . and the horizons of humanity’s potential.

Traveling faster than light, the transport ship Redundancy is cut off from communication as effectively as an ancient ocean liner. The isolation suits crew member Ace Vance just fine—she’s got nowhere else to be. But when a wealthy passenger turns up dead during a routine voyage, Ace will have to connect with the passengers and crew to uncover the truth. Tragedy will strike again—it’s only a matter of time.

Jusqu'où iriez-vous pour votre liberté ? Pendant des années, Sonya a été le visage de la Délégation, un régime totalitaire impitoyable.

Quand un vieil ennemi lui demande l'impossible en échange de sa liberté, l'ex-Poster Girl ne peut qu'accepter. Quitte à déterrer un sombre passé.

Sonya Kantor conosce molto bene questo motto, visto che ha ispirato, meglio condizionato, gran parte della sua vita. In realtà queste parole hanno condizionato la vita di tutti gli abitanti della megalopoli di Seattle-Portland-Vancouver. Per anni, infatti, hanno dovuto adattarsi a un codice morale molto rigido e a una costante sorveglianza da parte della Delegazione, resa possibile da una sofisticata tecnologia. Poi la rivolta ha cambiato tutto. La Delegazione è stata rovesciata e sostituita da un nuovo governo.

What's right is right. Sonya Kantor knows this slogan—she lived by it for most of her life. For decades, everyone in the Seattle-Portland megalopolis lived under it, as well as constant surveillance in the form of the Insight, an ocular implant that tracked every word and every action, rewarding or punishing by a rigid moral code set forth by the Delegation. Then there was a revolution. The Delegation fell. Its most valuable members were locked in the Aperture, a prison on the outskirts of the city. And everyone else, now free from monitoring, went on with their lives.
