One of the (many) things I love about the Cyborg Space Exploration part of the larger Cyborg series is that it places the cyborgs in a very different role than they normally enjoy.
Cyborgs were manufactured by the Humanoid Alliance for one main reason—to fight battles. They were designed to kill other beings. That’s their primary skill and one of their great pleasures.
Ending a being’s lifespan doesn’t require communicating with that being or learning a being’s culture or respecting them. It might be emotionally easier if cyborgs didn’t do that. They had very little interaction with other species, other than figuring out how to defeat and kill them.
Exploring planets and collecting genetic information on the locals are very different tasks. It is a peaceful mission (it makes no sense to collect genetic information on beings they will kill). Communicating with other beings, learning their cultures, respecting them makes that mission easier to complete.
The cyborgs have made mistakes while undertaking this mission. That’s to be expected. It is a brand new role for them. But they have also learned and grown as beings. They aren’t the same warriors they were in Choosing Chuckles.
And because cyborgs share information, ALL of the cyborgs have changed. Each encounter has taught them something new.
I’m excited to see how the events in Testing Truth will change the warriors.

Testing Truth
A fun-loving cyborg gets serious about love.
***
Truth lives each moment as though it were his last. The cyborg warrior rushes into danger, teases beings he shouldn’t provoke, accepts every call of adventure he encounters.
When a prissy little human princess floats into the Rebel structure Truth is occupying, seeking a mercenary to assist her and her unusual entourage, he volunteers to be her warrior. She claims their assignment is dangerous, warns him he might not survive the task.
That is exactly the type of fun he has been seeking.
Princess Nanette of the planet Royaume must rescue her estranged brother from an enemy prison ship. That is her duty, and she has been trained to always place the needs of her planet and her subjects before her own. Nancy doesn’t have the freedom to indulge her passions for a certain dark-haired, gray-skinned cyborg. Not permanently and not publicly.
But she is unable to resist the warrior. Truth, with his laughing eyes, smiling lips, and rough hands, tempts her as no one else ever has. He could be her one fleeting act of rebellion before she’s matched with the powerful ruler her planet requires.
If they survive their current mission.
Their love is doomed. Their lifespans are at risk. This cyborg and his princess will need the help of every ally they have if they wish to see another sunrise.
