The second part of the great Semiosis trilogy has this as a character back story. She was so evil that she's cloned each time after her death and the clone will suffer again and it's broadcasted to the world. Now that I think about it, it's pretty dark and deep considering it's only the back story of one person but that's how dense the book series is.
Hey! Thanks to this comment I started reading the trilogy and I really enjoy it, so I went back and found this comment just to let you know. Thanks for the indirect recommendation!
I'm happy to hear that, thanks for letting me know! I hope you'll enjoy it all the way to the end.
When I started reading the first book, the last one wasn't published yet so I had hope that's isn't an ongoing series but it's not.
I've not heard of those books before, I just looked them up and sounds very interesting thanks! Yeah that sounds pretty dark haha, Kind of like Mickey 17 but they just keep on throwing him into a blender or something. I guess there was that one episode (actually two) of Black Mirror where the guy cloned the people and put them in the space MMO to torture them every day. Great episodes. I'll check out those books :)
Always happy to spread the word! I know the books from a reading list of a linguistics podcast (lingthusiasm) since communication with aliens is also a theme (at least in the first book). It's great and deserves to be much more known. I love how different the books are and still they form a unit. The first book alone spreads over generations and still manages to form a coherent story.
Ohhh I'm getting goosebumps :)
