The Last Place to Stand — Aaron K. Redshaw

Her name is X213 and she lives in a society where technological advancement is the highest form of achievement of man, and the highest purpose of man is to further its development, making us more than human. But the technology she has worked so hard to improve is killing her.

His name is Samuel and he has rejected the world of the Technophiles, even at the cost of losing his own family. But Samuel is not one to sit idly by. His mission is to help rescue those trapped in their world where man meets machine. And then he meets X213.
