Aquion - Book 1: To the Moon

"It was called Aquion, one of those meaningless old-world brand names that could mean anything from prescription laxatives to bottled water. Nestled within the murky comfort of a giant, man-made infrastructure and positioned off the thin, jagged edge of the Antarctic sat a thousand voluminous metal spiders, dark tendrils reaching to each other in a web and sliding down into the oily depths."

Aquion takes place in a world in which res stations have been developed, which allow individuals to take advantage of multiple lives. Kay Strossen was one of the original creators of this technology, though that has been forgotten in the mists of time. She has lived over three hundred years, and feels as though she's seen it all--until war breaks out on Luna base. This funny and light science-fiction story follows the misadventures that ensue as multiple societies race to find a solution to their resource problems. This is the first installment of three.
