The Bane

TorBane was meant to heal humanity: cybernetics written into human DNA. Instead it evolved, spread like disease, and turned people into the Bane — mindless machine-human hybrids that have taken over 98% of the population.

Eve walked into the human colony of Eden at thirteen with nothing but her name and no memory of what came before. Five years later she is one of the settlement's strongest fighters. Then a stranger named West arrives, and the past she cannot remember starts surfacing — along with a truth about herself she is not ready for.

Torn between the colony she has sworn to protect, West, and Avian, the soldier who has always been at her side, Eve has to decide what she is. The Bane, first published as Eden, opens Keary Taylor's post-apocalyptic Eden Trilogy.
