SciFiHistory.Net has received word that Victor Acquista's Sentient is now available for purchase via Amazon.com in either digital or softcover paperback. According to the publicity information up at the website, here's the book's premise:
"The Mind Warriors of T'rox, intent on being the supreme sentient race in the galaxy, annihilated the home world of Adden, a place where the people had lived telepathically connected in peace and harmony. Their species slim chance to survive rests in a distant colony, genetically altered to block telepathy and evade detection by T'rox.
"Anyeuros escaped the destruction of Adden, traveling disembodied for 168,000 years before arriving on New Adden, only to learn of the disastrous consequences of the genetic manipulation--violence, poverty, abuse, prejudice.
"T'rox is on the verge of collapse, a result of social stagnation and infighting among the clans. Discovery of New Adden, the lost colony, provides a chance to reinvigorate their race with a fresh conquest.
"However,discovering their past mission was incomplete, a resulting conflict ensues, but a troubled physicist, his young neighbor, and an artificial intelligence may be the key to defeating them. Heroic misfits and outcasts are woven into three intersecting story lines and will determine humanity's fate."
