Mindbreaker: The explosive and action-packed science-fiction novel

Kate Dylan

Formats & Editions

No more quiet rebellions.

Born into a religious cult on the fringe of society, Indra Dyer lives a simple, tech-free existence. But when an illicit trip to the city leaves her with a debilitating - and terminal - condition, Indra must make a choice: die faithful or betray her Order and accept the cure Glindell Technologies is offering.

Forced to sign over full ownership of her life, Indra is horrified to learn the true nature of Glindell's plans. Instead of saving her body, they upload her mind to a first-of-its-kind MindDrive, housed in a fully robotic shell.

On the outside, Indra still looks the same; on the inside, she's not so sure. She keeps finding herself in places she really shouldn't be, with no memory of how she got there, and dangerous abilities she can't explain. So when news breaks of an attack against Glindell's biggest rival, Indra suspects the worst.

With the help of Tian - a research assistant with questionable morals and a smile that won't quit - Indra must uncover the truth behind the procedure that saved her life, before Glindell can use it to change the face of technology, and what it means to be human, forever . . .

Praise for Mindbreaker: The explosive and action-packed science-fiction novel

  • ** PRAISE FOR KATE DYLAN **Witty dialogue, compelling themes, tense action, a determined protagonist - Dylan has taken all these, soaked them in neon, and shaken them into a dystopian thriller that fizzes with energy and rebellion - Samantha Shannon, bestselling author of The Bone Season and The Priory of the Orange TreeWitty, gritty, and vicious fun. It's a tour de force in visual storytelling, and brings out the nuances of consent and autonomy in a digital world. I also loved the heart-pounding, edge of seat action sequences that felt like they were straight out of a movie (honestly, they should make one), and I read it so fast my head is still spinning. - Hannah Kaner, Sunday Times bestselling author of GodkillerA frenzied feat of genius. Dylan is an auto-buy author for me, her writing always promises an invigorating ride at breakneck speed -- MINDBREAKER is no exception. An electric plot is interspersed with touching moments of resilience from a magnetic cast of characters, whose stupid decisions still have you rooting for more. Oh and it's queer. Need I say anything else? - Saara El-Arifi, Sunday Times bestselling author of The Battle DrumMindwalker is here to grab you by the throat and pitch you head first into the thrill ride of a lifetime - Kat Dunn, author of Dangerous RemedyUtterly enthralling with no time to catch your breath - Saara El-Arifi, author of The Final StrifeMindwalker is pure adrenaline shot straight into your veins - Jesse Q. Sutanto, bestselling author of The Obsession and Dial A for AuntiesRidiculously thrilling. Mindwalker is an explosion of everything I love in sci-fi - Claire Winn, author of City of Shattered Light
