Two hundred years into its voyage from the ruins of Earth to a new home world, generations of the ship's crew have kept The Safina running for the sake of their 'ancestors', kept alive below decks in cryostasis. But over the centuries, the society onboard has changed and a deep unrest has been brewing. Why should the crew sacrifice so much for those none of them knew? Why should they answer to an authority they never chose?As protests begin to boil over, the ship becomes a powderkeg - and all it will take is a spark to destroy not only humanity's past, but its future too... A science fiction odyssey of breathtaking scope, The Republic of Memory is a gripping examination of what divides us, and what brings us together. This is a modern and ambitious work of Arabfuturism, and is perfect for fans of The Expanse, A Memory Called Empire or Children of Time. ***'An instant classic that deserves to be spoken of in the company of Iain M.
