A wrecked starship. A dead man's mind. In a desperate race across Mars, Maggie must unravel their secrets before the Tharks erase them forever. The Extrapolated Man is a cinematic science fiction epic about the nature of sentience and identity. Mars was the New World of the solar system, the prosperous center of trade with the Belt and beyond, until a disastrous war with Earth resulted in a technological singularity that left both planets under control of weaponized lifeforms called Tharks. Long after the war, Maggie finds a recording of a dead man's mind in the ancient wreckage of an experimental ship. The discovery catapults her into a dangerous race with a psychopathic rival intent on stealing her find, and a hive of Tharks bent on erasing its very existence. To survive she must resurrect the dead man in the body of a battered warbot. Commander Gray of the United Colonies Space Force was a romantic born in the wrong era. His dreams of exploration were ruined by war with Earth, and ultimately he sacrificed both his dreams and his life in service to Mars. But when he wakes a century later in the body of a warbot, he realizes he has been given one last chance, for his ship is the only remaining faster-than-light vessel in existence. Gray must come to grips with his new identity and earn Maggie's trust if they are to rebuild his ship before the Tharks destroy all evidence it ever existed. The stakes have never been higher, for if they lose, humanity will remain planet-bound forever, but if they win, they stand to gain the stars.
