    About this ebook

    The Orus system’s Orussians had found a brilliant way to harness the power of labor by engineering ant-monkeys, a hard-working and unswervingly loyal slave species—until the uprising.
    Having further manipulated the genes of her own male ant-monkey, Inoatar, and granting him free will, bioscientist Uriëlla has grievously breached the code of conduct. The barbaric penalty for these acts would not only involve her, but her entire clan as well. As a result, she must wrestle with emancipating Inoatar despite desperately needing him.
    The uprising, Uriëlla’s actions and their subsequent fallout lead to a struggle of biblical proportions which promises to forever alter Orus civilization.

      Acknowledgement

      First and foremost this story would not have been possible without the theories and thoughts that my late father shared with me when I was a teenager. I thus posthumously thank him for giving me the inspiration that has led me to discover this great new hobby: writing fiction. I like to thank my wife and my family in law for helping me to find the inspiration for turning my late fathers wild theories on the origin of man into a coherent short story during my amazing 2013/2014 stay in Benin. Without them and without my inspirational stay in Benin this story would still only be incoherent bits and pieces and I would never have started writing fiction. I also thank the input and encouragement I received from my beta readers. I would like to thank my editor, Jackie Davis, who did an amazing job turning my story into something I dare to publish. I also would like to thank the talented Keith Draws for providing me with the amazing cover art. Last but not least I would like to thank 'you', the reader for picking up this publication and for considering it worth your time.
